### sec.140AF End of suspension
The suspension of a person’s authority ends if the person or relevant person is issued with a working with children authority.

If the chief executive ends the suspension of a person’s authority under subsection (2) —
the chief executive must give the person written notice that the suspension is ended; and
the suspension ends on the day the notice is given to the person.
