The Labour Inspector will give an explicit decision on any request made by an employer to assess the compliance of all or part of the internal regulations with the provisions of Articles L. 1321-1 to L. 1321-3 and L. 1321-6 .
The request mentioned in the first paragraph is not admissible if the administrative authority has already made an express decision in application of article L. 1322-2.
The decision takes effect within the scope of application of the internal regulations concerned and is enforceable against the administrative authority for the future as long as the factual situation set out in the request or the legislation against which the situation has been assessed has not been changed or until the labour inspector notifies the applicant of a change in his assessment.
The labour inspector’s decision is reasoned. It is notified to the employer and communicated, for information, to the members of the social and economic committee.
The Labour Inspector’s decision may be appealed to a higher authority, under conditions defined by regulation.
The decision taken on this appeal is notified to the employer and communicated, for information, to the members of the social and economic committee.
