### sec.150 Chief executive may register person without application
This section applies if the chief executive considers a person is, or is likely to become, a registrable biosecurity entity.

even though the person has not applied for registration; and
even if the person can be expected to be a registrable biosecurity entity only on a temporary basis.
However, before registering the person under this part, the chief executive must—
give the person a notice stating—
that the chief executive proposes to register the person because the person is, or is likely to become, a registrable biosecurity entity; and
the registration details the chief executive proposes to include in the biosecurity register for the person if the person becomes a registrable biosecurity entity, to the extent the details are known by the chief executive; and
a reasonable period within which the person may make written submissions to the chief executive about whether the person is, or is likely to become, a registrable biosecurity entity; and
consider any written submission made by the person within the stated period.
On registering the person as a registered biosecurity entity in the biosecurity register, the chief executive must—
advise the person of the registration; and
give the person an information notice for—
the chief executive’s decision to register the person without having received an application for registration; and
the chief executive’s decision about the registration details.
