12 Changing permit conditions

Imposing new conditions (1) After giving a person a permit under section 11, the Minister may impose a new permit condition by giving the person notice of the condition. The notice must include the reasons for imposing the new condition. Removing or varying conditions (2) The Minister may remove or vary a condition of the permit by giving the person notice of the removal or variation. For a variation of a condition, the notice must include the reasons for the variation. When new conditions or variations take effect (3) The imposition of a new permit condition under subsection (1), or the variation of a permit condition under subsection (2), takes effect at the time specified in the notice, which must be at least 14 days after the day on which the notice is given. (4) However, the notice may specify that the new permit condition or the variation takes effect at the time the person receives the notice if the Minister is satisfied that the new permit condition or variation needs to take effect then for reasons of urgency.
