Work Health and Safety Act 2012

A prohibition notice must state—

that the inspector believes that grounds for the issue of the prohibition notice exist and the basis for that belief; and

briefly, the activity that the inspector believes involves or will involve the risk and the matters that give or will give rise to the risk;

the provision of this Act that the inspector believes is being, or is likely to be, contravened by that activity.

A prohibition notice may include directions on the measures to be taken to remedy the risk, activities or matters to which the notice relates, or the contravention or likely contravention referred to in subsection (1)(c).

Without limiting section 195, a prohibition notice that prohibits the carrying on of an activity in a specified way may do so by specifying one or more of the following:

a workplace, or part of a workplace, at which the activity is not to be carried out;

anything that is not to be used in connection with the activity;

any procedure that is not to be followed in connection with the activity.
