notify the holder in writing that it is proposed to cancel the licence; and

allow the holder 14 days within which to make oral or written submissions about the proposal.

In making a decision, the Game Management Authority must—

have regard to the submissions; and

notify the holder of the decision.

In addition to cancelling the licence, the Game Management Authority may—

cancel any other game licence or wildlife licence in respect of specified birds issued to that person; and

specify a time within which the person may not apply for another game licence or wildlife licence in respect of specified birds.
