### sec.69A Effect of suspension on issue or transfer of another authority
If an authority (the suspended authority ) has been suspended, the chief executive may not accept an application—
to issue another authority, or register a transfer of another authority, to the holder of the suspended authority, if the other authority would allow the holder to carry out the activities otherwise allowed under the suspended authority, during the period the suspended authority is suspended; or
to register a transfer of the authority to another person during the period the suspended authority is suspended.
However, subsection (1) (b) does not apply if—
the suspension is under section 68AB ; and
the chief executive has, under section 65A (3) (b) , given written approval to the registration of the transfer.
To remove any doubt, it is declared that subsection (2) does not affect the suspension under section 68AB .
If a part of a quota entitlement for a quota authority has been suspended under section 68AC , the chief executive may not accept an application—
to issue another quota authority, or register a transfer of another quota authority, to the holder of the quota authority to which the suspended quota entitlement applies, if the other quota authority would give the holder an entitlement to take fisheries resources the holder would otherwise be authorised to take under the suspended quota entitlement; or
to register a transfer of the quota authority to which the suspended quota entitlement applies to another person during the period of the suspension.
