Variation of licence
27 Variation of licence
(1) Subject to this section and sections 28 and 29, the Director may:
on the Director's own motion; or
(b) on the application of a licensee in a form approved by the Director,
by notice given to the licensee vary the terms and conditions of the licensee's licence.
(2) Before varying a licence under subsection (1)(a), the Director must give the licensee written notice:
specifying the proposed variation;
specifying the reasons for the variation; and
(c) inviting the licensee to, within the period of not less than 28 days specified in the notice, submit reasons why the variation should not be made.
(3) If, after considering the submissions of the licensee (if any), the Director continues to consider that variation of the licence is appropriate, the Director may vary the licence, whether or not as proposed in the notice under subsection (2).
(4) If a licensee applies under subsection (1)(b) to vary the licence by deleting, adding or substituting premises, the Director must vary the licence accordingly on being satisfied that to do so would not result in the licensee contravening a law in force in the Territory.
(5) A licence may be varied by the addition of a new term or condition or the substitution or deletion of any of its existing terms and conditions.
A variation of a licence takes effect on:
the date notice of the variation is given to the licensee; or
the date specified for that purpose in the notice,
whichever last occurs.
(7) A licensee must comply with his or her licence as varied under this section.
(8) Subsections (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) do not apply if the variation is for a formal or clerical reason that does not alter the effect of the licence.
