Are there any deadlines for making an application to the First Tribunal  to determine the pitch fee and how long will it take?

Yes. If the pitch fee review notice is served at least 28 clear days before the review date, it’s 3 months from the review date. Usually it will …take between 2 – 3 months from the date the application is made until the application is heard (assuming the Tribunal wants to hear what the parties have to say).
