Variation, suspension and cancellation of permits
41 Variation, suspension and cancellation of permits
The Commission may vary, suspend or cancel a permit – on application by the holder of the permit; or of the Commission's own accord.
The Commission may vary a permit if – there has been a change in a matter that the Commission took into account when issuing the permit; or the Commission believes the variation to be appropriate.
The Commission may suspend or cancel a permit if – there has been a breach of a condition of the permit; or the holder has been convicted of a traffic offence of a serious or persistent nature; or there has been a breach of a mass, dimension, route or area restriction on the permit; or a vehicle or combination to which the permit applies has been found to be carrying an unsafe load.
The Commission may cancel a permit if – the vehicle or combination to which the permit applies is altered; or the application for the permit contained material that was false or misleading.
If the Commission varies, cancels or suspends a permit, the Commission is to notify the holder of the permit in writing of the variation, cancellation or suspension.
A variation, cancellation or suspension takes effect – from the date on which the holder receives notice under subregulation (5), if a later date is not specified in the notice; or if a later date is specified in the notice, from that date.
A permit that is suspended has no effect for the period during which it is suspended.
