64 Taking regulatory action

(1) If AMSA proposes to take regulatory action against a licensed pilot, AMSA must give the person a written notice (a regulatory notice) that:

(a) states the proposed action, including any proposed disqualification period, suspension period or variation of a pilot licence; and

(b) states the grounds for the proposed action; and

(c) tells the person that the person may, within 30 days after the person receives the notice, give a written response to AMSA about the notice.

(2) In deciding whether to take regulatory action, AMSA must consider any response given to AMSA by the person in response to the notice.

(3) AMSA may take the proposed regulatory action against the person if satisfied that a ground for regulatory action has been established for a person.

(4) AMSA must give the person written notice of AMSA’s decision and the reasons for decision.

(5) Regulatory action under subsection (3) takes effect on the day when the notice of the decision is given to the person or, if the notice states a later date of effect, that date.
