(c) if the additional fee is not paid within the period directed by the Tribunal or, if no such direction is given, within the prescribed period, the Tribunal may dismiss the application but:

(i) if the additional fee is paid after the application is dismissed, the applicant may apply to the Tribunal for reinstatement of the application; and

(a) if the whole of the fee is waived - paragraphs (2)(b) and (c) do not apply; or
