(i) the completion of such engagements within that seven day period; or
(ii) the completion of that seven day period.
(3) Each suspension of a Rider or Rider’s Licence which is imposed under these Rules by a Judicial Committee otherwise than during any day of a Race Meeting shall take effect as follows:
