55DLimit on number of medically supervised injecting centre licences

55D Limit on number of medically supervised injecting centre licences (1) There must not be more than one medically supervised injecting centre licence in force at the same time. (2) If— (a) a medically supervised injecting centre licence is issued; and (b) at the time that the licence would commence, there is already another licence in force— the licence referred to in paragraph (a) becomes invalid at that time. Section 55F(1B) provides that if the previous licence is to be revoked on the same day that the new licence is to commence, the new licence commences immediately after that revocation. Accordingly, the previous licence will not be in force at the time that the new licence commences, and so the new licence will not become invalid under subsection (2).
