WORK HEALTH AND SAFETY REGULATIONS 2011 - REG 508

Amendment imposed by regulator

  (1)   The regulator may, on its own initiative, amend an asbestos removal licence, including by amending the licence to:

  (a)   vary or delete a condition of the licence; or

  (b)   impose a new condition on the licence.

  (2)   If the regulator proposes to amend a licence, the regulator must give the licence holder written notice:

  (a)   setting out the proposed amendment and the reasons for it; and

  (b)   advising the licence holder that the licence holder may, by a specified date (being not less than 28 days after giving the notice), make a submission to the regulator in relation to the proposed amendment.

  (3)   After the date specified in a notice under subregulation   (2), the regulator must:

  (a)   if the licence holder has made a submission in relation to the proposed amendment--consider that submission; and

  (b)   whether or not the licence holder has made a submission--decide:

  (i)   to make the proposed amendment; or

  (ii)   not to make any amendment; or

  (iii)   to make a different amendment that results from consideration of any submission made by the licence holder; and

  (c)   within 14 days after making that decision, give the licence holder written notice that:

  (i)   sets out the amendment, if any, or states that no amendment is to be made; and

  (ii)   if a submission was made in relation to the proposed amendment--sets out the regulator's reasons for making the amendment; and

  (iii)   specifies the date (being not less than the 28 days after the licence holder is given the notice) on which the amendment, if any, takes effect.

Note:   A decision to amend a licence is a reviewable decision (see regulation   676).
