### sec.172 Chief executive may restore or refuse to restore registration certificate
The chief executive must consider the application for restoration and decide to restore or refuse to restore the registration certificate.
The chief executive may decide to restore the certificate only if the chief executive is satisfied—
the person is a suitable person to obtain registration; and
the application is made under section 171 (2) ; and
the person meets the eligibility requirements, other than eligibility requirements of an educational nature, for the certificate.
If the chief executive decides to refuse to restore the registration certificate, the chief executive must give the person an information notice about the decision within 14 days after making the decision.
If the chief executive decides to restore the certificate—
the certificate is taken to have been renewed on the day it would, apart from section 170 , have expired (the initial expiry date ); and
to remove any doubt, it is declared that a thing done during the period starting on the initial expiry date and ending on the day the certificate is restored under this section is taken to have been as validly done as it would have been if the certificate had been renewed immediately before the initial expiry date.
