Liquor Act 1992

The commissioner may suspend or revoke an approval given under section 173EN or 173EO if the commissioner is satisfied—

for an approval under section 173EN—the ID scanner, or the ID scanner as modified, no longer meets the requirements under section 173EN(7); or

for an approval under section 173EO—the ID scanning system, or the ID scanning system as modified, no longer meets the requirements under section 173EO(7).

The commissioner must first give a notice (a show cause notice) to the person to whom the approval was given stating—

that the commissioner proposes to suspend or revoke the approval; and

for a proposed suspension—the proposed period of the suspension; and

the reasons for the proposed suspension or revocation; and

that the person may, within a stated time of at least 30 days, give the commissioner a written response stating why the person considers the approval should not be suspended or revoked.

After considering any response from the person within the time stated in the show cause notice, the commissioner may suspend or revoke the approval.

The commissioner must give the person an information notice for the decision to suspend or revoke the approval.

The suspension or revocation takes effect on the day stated in the information notice.

The stated day must be at least 14 days after the information notice is given.

The commissioner must notify all licensees for regulated premises of the suspension or revocation and, in the case of a suspension, when the suspension ends.

If the commissioner decides not to suspend or revoke the approval, the commissioner must give the person notice of the decision.
