sec.155 Decision on application
After assessing the approved education and care service, the Board must— if it is satisfied that it is appropriate to do so, give the approved education and care service the highest rating level; or otherwise refuse to give that rating. The Board must make its decision within 60 days after the application is received. The period specified in subsection (2) may be extended by up to 30 days— if a request for information and documents is made under section 154 ; or by agreement between the approved provider and the Board. If the Board gives the highest rating level to an approved education and care service, that rating becomes the rating level for that service. The highest rating level awarded to an approved education and care service applies to that service for 5 years, unless sooner revoked. s 155 amd 2022 No. 43 (Vic) s 34 (sec.155-ssec.1) After assessing the approved education and care service, the Board must— if it is satisfied that it is appropriate to do so, give the approved education and care service the highest rating level; or otherwise refuse to give that rating.
