87.—(1) Section 159(8)(a) of the 2006 Act(1) (national disqualification) is to have effect as if the reference to “two years” were a reference to “five years”, if the First-tier Tribunal determines, when it imposes the national disqualification, that the conduct of the person on whom the national disqualification has been imposed has been such that there is no realistic prospect of a review being successful if held within five years.

(2) Section 159(8)(b) of the 2006 Act is to have effect as if the reference to “one year” were a reference to “three years”, if the First-tier Tribunal determines, on a review, that the conduct of the person on whom the national disqualification has been imposed has been such that there is no realistic prospect of a further review being successful if held within three years.

(i)a national disqualification has been imposed as a consequence of an adverse decision of a licensing body, and
