122  Time for making decision on safety zone application
 (1) The Regulator must make a decision on a safety zone application before the end of the period (the decision period) of 60 days after the day the application is made.

Extensions of decision period
 (2) The Regulator may, by written notice to the applicant, extend the decision period by a period specified in the notice.
 (3) The notice must set out the reasons for the extension.
Note: For example, the Regulator may extend the decision period if the Regulator gives a notice under subsection 120(1) (notification of certain safety zone applications), subsection 121(1) (requesting further information) or subsection 124(1) (proposing to refuse the application), or for other reasons.
 (4) To avoid doubt, the Regulator may extend the decision period more than once.

Failure to make decision within decision period does not affect validity
 (5) A failure by the Regulator to comply with subsection (1) does not affect the validity of any decision made on the safety zone application or anything done by the Regulator in dealing with the application.
