HIGHER EDUCATION FUNDING ACT 1988 - SECT 55

  (1)   If a student who receives a notice from an institution under section   54 considers that the notice was not, or has ceased to be, correct in a material particular, the student may, within 14 days after the date on which the notice is sent, or within such further period as the appropriate officer of the institution allows, give to that officer a written request for the notice to be corrected in respect of that particular.

  (2)   A request shall specify the particular that is considered to be incorrect and shall set out the grounds on which the student considers that particular to be incorrect.

  (3)   The making of a request does not affect the liability of the student to pay the contribution.

  (4)   Where a request is received by an institution, the institution shall, as soon as practicable, consider the matter to which the request relates and notify the student of its decision on the request and, if it is satisfied that a material particular in the notice under section   54 was not, or has ceased to be, correct, give a further notice under subsection   54(3).
