Road Transport Act 2013

This section applies to an application to the Local Court for the removal of licence disqualifications under this Division.

An application—

is to include any relevant matter that the applicant requests the Local Court to take into account in determining the application, and

is to be accompanied by an up-to-date statement of the applicant’s driving record issued by Transport for NSW, and

is to contain particulars of any pending proceedings against the applicant for an alleged driving offence.

In order to ensure the accuracy and currency of the information available to determine an application, the Local Court may require reports to be provided to the Court in relation to the applicant or require earlier reports to be updated, including—

police reports with respect to the criminal record of the applicant, and

reports from Transport for NSW with respect to the driving record of the applicant, and

reports from the Commissioner of Fines Administration with respect to any penalty notices that are pending proceedings against the applicant for alleged driving offences.

An application for the removal of licence disqualifications under this Division cannot be made within 12 months after the Local Court has rejected an earlier application for the removal of any of those licence disqualifications.
