### sec.121A Changing and removing disciplinary conditions or restrictions
This section applies if the licensing committee has taken disciplinary action against the person by—
including or changing a condition or restriction in the licence; or
if the person is the holder of an electrical work licence that, under the external licence recognition provision, is an external licence—imposing or changing a condition or restriction on the external licence recognition provision’s application to the external licence.
The person may make a written application to the licensing committee to change or remove the condition or restriction.
The licensing committee may, on its own initiative or on an application under subsection (2) , change the condition or restriction in a way that is beneficial to the person if the committee is satisfied it is reasonable to do so in all the circumstances.
The licensing committee may, on its own initiative or on an application under subsection (2) , remove the condition or restriction if the committee is satisfied—
the condition has been complied with; or
a condition decided by the committee relating to the restriction has been complied with; or
the condition or restriction is no longer appropriate in all the circumstances.
The licensing committee must give notice of its decision to the person.
If the licensing committee changes or removes the condition or restriction, and the person is the holder of an external licence, notice of the committee’s decision, but not the reasons for the decision, must also be published in the gazette.
