22 Permit details to CEO
The permit issuing authority must:
(a)
provide the CEO with full details, or a copy, of the permit and conditions; or
(b)
if the authority declines to issue the permit – advise the CEO of that fact and the reason for declining.
Note for paragraph (b)
Despite approving the application for a permit in-principle, a permit issuing authority could decline to issue the permit because, for example, an intervening cyclone, bushfire or other natural disaster may have affected the sustainability of the biological resources in the area proposed for taking samples.
