Electricity Act 1994

Each of the following is a ground for taking disciplinary action against an electricity entity—

the entity’s authority was obtained by incorrect or misleading information;

the entity has contravened this Act, the Electrical Safety Act or the Energy and Water Ombudsman Act 2006;

the entity has contravened a condition of its authority;

the entity is not, or is no longer, a suitable person to be the holder of an authority of the relevant type;

for a generation entity, transmission entity or distribution entity—the owner of the generating plant, transmission grid or supply network is not, or is no longer, a suitable person to be the owner.

The question whether a person is, or continues to be, a suitable person is decided in the same way as the question whether the person would be a suitable person for the issue of an authority of the relevant type.
