COMBAT SPORTS ACT 2013 - SECT 75
Authority may make general prohibition orders
(1) The Authority may make a general prohibition order against a person (other
than an order referred to in subsection (2)) if the Authority is of the
opinion that: (a) there are grounds for taking disciplinary action against the
person under Division 4 of Part 2 (including under section 34) or that such
grounds would exist if the person were a registered person, and
(b) the
person has not, within the period specified in the show cause notice, shown
sufficient reasons why the order should not be made.
(2) The Authority may
make a general prohibition order against a person prohibiting the person from
permitting, on premises controlled by the person, the holding of a
combat sport contest or a weigh-in if the Authority is of the opinion that:
(a) the prohibited person has previously permitted a person to hold a contest
without a permit on such premises, and
(b) the Authority warned the
prohibited person after the previous occasion that any future acts of that
kind could result in a prohibition order, and
(c) the prohibited person has
subsequently permitted, or intends to permit, a person to hold a contest
without a permit on such premises, and
(d) the prohibited person has not,
within the period specified in the show cause notice, shown sufficient reasons
why the order should not be made.
(3) The Authority is not limited to making
a prohibition order in the same terms as are specified in the show cause
notice.
(4) A general prohibition order may be made against a person whether
or not that person is registered under this Act and whether or not
disciplinary action has been taken against that person.
(5) A
general prohibition order takes effect when notice in writing of the order is
given to the prohibited person or on any later day specified in the order.
(6) A general prohibition order ceases to have effect: (a) if the order is
revoked, or
(b) at the end of the term (if any) specified in the order or in
the circumstances (if any) specified in the order.
(7) The Authority may at
any time, by notice in writing to the prohibited person, vary or revoke a
general prohibition order.
(8) A person must not, without reasonable excuse,
contravene an order made under this section. Maximum penalty: (a) if an order
prohibits a person from arranging a combat sport contest--160 penalty units or
6 months imprisonment, or both, or
(b) if an order prohibits a person from
holding a combat sport contest--500 penalty units or 12 months imprisonment,
or both, or
(c) for any other order--80 penalty units or 6 months
imprisonment, or both.
