Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993

The Regulator may disqualify an individual if satisfied that:

the person has contravened this Act or the Financial Sector (Collection of Data) Act 2001 on one or more occasions; and

the nature or seriousness of the contravention or contraventions, or the number of contraventions, provides grounds for disqualifying the individual.

For offences relating to disqualified persons, see Subdivision C.

The Regulator may disqualify an individual who is, or was, a responsible officer of a trustee, investment manager or custodian (the body corporate) if satisfied that:

the body corporate has contravened this Act or the Financial Sector (Collection of Data) Act 2001 on one or more occasions; and

at the time of one or more of the contraventions, the individual was a responsible officer of the body corporate; and

in respect of the contravention or contraventions that occurred while the individual was a responsible officer of the body corporate—the nature or seriousness of it or them, or the number of them, provides grounds for the disqualification of the individual.

The Regulator may disqualify an individual if satisfied that the individual is otherwise not a fit and proper person to be a trustee, investment manager or custodian, or a responsible officer of a body corporate that is a trustee, investment manager or custodian.

A disqualification takes effect on the day on which it is made.

The Regulator may revoke a disqualification on application by the disqualified individual or on its own initiative. A revocation takes effect on the day on which it is made.

The Regulator must give the individual written notice of a disqualification, revocation of a disqualification or a refusal to revoke a disqualification.
