(1) Without limiting section 23(1) of the Act, conditions, limitations and restrictions inserted by the Authority in a licence may include those—
(a) specifying the measures to be used to eliminate or reduce risks associated with the activities authorised by the licence, including risks arising out of security concerns associated with explosives; and
(b) requiring the provision of information, instruction and training to specified persons or classes of persons; and
(c) requiring the supervision of the licensee or persons employed by the licensee; and
(d) requiring the reporting of information to the Authority, including but not limited to information in relation to—
(i) any matter included in the licence application; and
(ii) the licensee's ongoing suitability or competency to carry out the activities authorised by the licence, including information on any court proceeding related to offences under any occupational health and safety or dangerous goods legislation (and, in the case of an explosives driver licence and an explosives vehicle licence, road transport legislation) in any Australian jurisdiction involving the licensee; and
(iii) the results of any required examinations as requested by the Authority or testing as required by an approved testing provider; and
(e) limiting the activities authorised by the licence or specifying that only certain activities may be carried out under the licence; and
(f) requiring that notice be given to any person who may be affected by the issue of the licence—
(i) that the licence has been issued; and
(ii) of any conditions, limitations or restrictions of the licence; and
(g) imposing time limits on when any action required to be taken is to be taken.
Section 23(1) of the Act allows the Authority to insert
in a licence any prescribed conditions, limitations and restrictions and such other conditions, limitations and restrictions as the Authority thinks appropriate to ensure safety or compliance with the Act.
(2) If a licensee contravenes a condition, limitation or restriction of the licence or any provision of these Regulations, the Authority may vary the conditions, limitations or restrictions of the licence in a manner that it considers appropriate.
(3) If a licence is varied under subregulation (2), the Authority may restore the original conditions, limitations or restrictions at any time.
