### sec.173NL Relevant licensee must be admitted as member of local board
This section applies if a relevant licensee for a safe night precinct gives the local board for the precinct a written application for membership of the local board.
The local board’s management committee must admit the relevant licensee (a licensee member ) as a member of the local board.
However, the local board’s management committee may reject a relevant licensee’s application for membership if—
the relevant licensee was previously a member of the local board; and
the licensee’s previous membership was terminated by the management committee.
Before deciding to reject a membership application under subsection (3) , the management committee must consider—
the grounds on which the relevant licensee’s previous membership was terminated; and
any undertakings made by the licensee in relation to the application.
In this section, a reference to a relevant licensee for a safe night precinct includes an exempt licensee for the precinct given a notice under section 173NG (2) requiring the licensee to be a member of the board.
