15H Governor may revoke or vary suspension of person from office of Chief Commissioner
The Governor may revoke or vary a suspension imposed under section 15E.
If a suspension is revoked or varied under subsection (1), the Minister must cause a statement setting out the grounds for the revocation or variation to be laid before each House of Parliament during the first 7 sitting-days of that House following the revocation or variation, or a longer period allowed by resolution of the House of Parliament before which it is laid.
If a suspension is revoked or varied under subsection (1), a House of Parliament, within 30 sitting-days after the day on which a statement setting out the grounds for the revocation or variation has been laid before the House under subsection (2), or a longer period allowed by resolution of that House of Parliament, may pass a resolution – confirming the revocation or variation of the suspension; or revoking the revocation or variation of the suspension.
If both Houses of Parliament pass a resolution under subsection (3)(b) – revoking the revocation of a suspension, the suspension is to be taken to continue on and from the day on which the resolution is passed by both Houses until the suspension is revoked, if at all, under this Act; or revoking the variation of a suspension, the variation of the suspension is to be taken to cease on and from the day on which the resolution has been passed by both Houses.
