A person whose high risk work licence has expired may apply for a renewal of that licence—
(a) within 12 months after the expiry of the licence; or
(b) if the person satisfies the regulator that exceptional circumstances exist—within any longer period that the regulator allows.
Note 1 As the licence has expired, the applicant cannot carry out the work covered by the licence until the licence is renewed. An application made after a period mentioned in par (a) or (b) would be an application for a new licence under s 87.
Note 2 It is an offence to make a false or misleading statement, give false or misleading information or produce a false or misleading document (see
title="A2002-51">Criminal Code, pt 3.4).
