If your objection in Westland is declared inadmissible, it means it will not be assessed on the merits. This is due to failure to comply with formal rules.
Meaning of Inadmissibility
An inadmissible objection is not assessed on the merits by the administrative authority. Only formal defects are examined, causing the objection to be rejected outright.
Causes of Inadmissibility
| Reason | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Filed too late | Objection after the 6-week period |
| No valid decision | It concerns no decision against which objection is possible |
| No involvement | You have no direct interest in the decision |
| No motivation | You have not indicated why you object |
| No signature | The objection is not signed |
Possibility of Remedy
In some cases, you can remedy a defect:
- No signature: often you can still add it
- No motivation: you get a short period to supplement this
- Filed too late: only with a valid reason for the delay
Excusable Reasons for Delay
A late objection can sometimes still be accepted if:
- The decision was not known to you in time
- You could not respond due to circumstances such as illness
- You took immediate action as soon as possible
Appeal Against Inadmissibility
If your objection has been declared inadmissible, you can lodge an appeal with the District Court of The Hague. The judge will then examine whether the rejection was justified.
