(b) subsequently record those matters in writing and (unless that record forms part of a record made pursuant to article 5) give a copy to those parties or their representatives.

(a) a record shall be made by the legal assessor of the advice given (together with any question which led to that advice), and of the decision not to accept it, together with the reasons for that decision; and
