Suspension or cancellation of licence—on regulator's initiative
602 Suspension or cancellation of licence—on regulator's initiative
The regulator, on their own initiative, may suspend or cancel a major hazard facility licence if satisfied about 1 or more of the following:
the operator has failed to ensure that the facility is operated safely and competently;
the operator has failed to ensure compliance with a condition of the licence;
the operator, in the application for the grant or renewal of the licence or on request by the regulator for additional information—
gave information that was false or misleading in a material particular; or
failed to give any material information that should have been given in that application or on that request.
If the regulator suspends or cancels a major hazard facility licence, the regulator may disqualify the operator from applying for a further major hazard facility licence.
Note A decision to suspend a licence, to cancel a licence or to disqualify the operator from applying for a further licence is a reviewable decision (see s 676).
