### sec.65 Censuring key person licensee
The chief executive may censure a key person licensee for a matter relating to a ground for suspension or cancellation if the chief executive—
believes a ground exists to suspend or cancel the key person licensee’s key person licence but does not believe that giving a show cause notice to the licensee is warranted; or
after considering the accepted representations for a show cause notice, still believes a ground exists to suspend or cancel the key person licensee’s key person licence but does not believe suspension or cancellation of the licence is warranted.
The censure can be effected only by the chief executive giving the key person licensee an information notice about the decision to censure the licensee.
If the chief executive believes the key person licensee is an employee or a key operator of a primary licensee, the chief executive must immediately give written notice of the censure to the primary licensee.
