Appointment of substitute responsible person by Commissioner on application
30 Appointment of substitute responsible person by Commissioner on application
If a responsible person for a licence will be absent from the business to which the licence relates for a period of more than 30 days the
Commissioner may, on application by the holder of the licence, appoint another individual as a substitute responsible person in respect of the licence for the period of that absence.
An application under subsection (1) must be accompanied by enough information about the person proposed to be appointed to enable the
Commissioner to decide whether the person is suitable for appointment as a substitute responsible person.
The Commissioner may only appoint a person as a substitute responsible person under this section if—
the Commissioner has complied with the requirements of section 31; and
the Commissioner is satisfied that the person is suitable for appointment as a responsible person.
If the Commissioner approves the application, the Commissioner must update the register to record the change to the licence details.
