Suspension of licence
15 Suspension of licence
The Secretary may, if the Secretary is satisfied there may be grounds for cancelling a licence, suspend the licence by giving the licensee a written notice stating that the licence is suspended. The regulations may specify other grounds on which a licence may be suspended by the Secretary.
The suspension of a licence continues until either—
the licence is cancelled under section 16, or
the Secretary gives the licensee a written notice stating that the suspension is lifted.
The authority conferred by a licence ceases to have effect during the period that the licence is suspended.
However, the Secretary may authorise a person, during the period that a licence is suspended, to cultivate or supply, in accordance with the conditions of the licence, any low-THC hemp that was in the possession of the licence holder immediately before the suspension took effect.
