Thanks PB, this is the CFCB document.Those regulations specifically exclude CFCB matters. Article 2. So CFCB rules take precedence.

Article 38 from the CFCB procedural rules
1 A time limit begins on the date from which the decision is notified or published, whichever is the earlier. It is considered to have been observed if acted upon by 24.00 CET (Central European Time) on the deadline date. Official holidays and non-working days are included in the calculation of time limits. When a deadline
expires on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday in the Swiss canton of Vaud, where UEFA's headquarters are located, it is carried forward to the next working day.
2 On receipt of a reasoned, written request, the CFCB chief investigator or CFCB
chairman may extend a time limit.
3 Time limits are interrupted from 20 December to 5 January inclusive
So the "5 years" limitation is actually around 85 days more than that based on 38.3.
