Review of safety order—authorised practitioner
55 Review of safety order—authorised practitioner
If a safety order was made on the advice of an authorised practitioner (the advising practitioner), the chief executive must refer the order to another authorised practitioner (the reviewing practitioner) for review as required under subsection (2).
The safety order must be reviewed—
if the advising practitioner recommended the order be reviewed at intervals of not more than 7 days—at intervals of not more than 7 days; or
otherwise—as soon as practicable.
The reviewing practitioner must review the safety order as required under subsection (2).
After completing the review, the reviewing practitioner must recommend to the chief executive whether the safety order should be confirmed, amended in a particular way or cancelled.
The chief executive must consider the recommendation and confirm, amend or cancel the safety order.
To remove any doubt, it is declared that the chief executive is not bound by the reviewing practitioner’s recommendation.
