### sec.214G Censuring licensed person
The commissioner may censure the holder of a licence under this part for a matter relating to a ground for suspension or cancellation if the commissioner—
believes a ground exists to suspend or cancel the licence but does not believe that giving a show cause notice to the holder is warranted; or
after considering the accepted representations for a show cause notice, still believes a ground exists to suspend or cancel the licence but does not believe suspension or cancellation of the licence is warranted.
The censure can be effected only by the commissioner giving the holder of the licence an information notice for the decision to censure the holder.
If the commissioner believes the holder of the licence is employed by an interested person of the holder, the commissioner must immediately give written notice of the censure to the interested person.
