86 TFMS registration and issue of driver certification manuals
(1) The Authority may, on application made in accordance with regulation 82: (a) if the application is for registration as a driver participant in TFMS—register the applicant as a driver participant in TFMS; and (b) if the application is for registration as an employer participant in TFMS—register the applicant as an employer participant in TFMS. (2) However, the Authority must not register the applicant if the applicant was previously registered as a participant in TFMS or a corresponding TFMS and the applicant’s registration was cancelled less than 3 months before the applicant again applied for registration. (3) After registering an applicant as a driver participant in TFMS, the Authority must: (a) give a unique identifying TFMS registration number to the applicant; and (b) annotate the applicant’s driver certification manual to show the TFMS registration number and the date, time and place of registration; and (c) issue the manual to the applicant. (4) After registering an applicant as an employer participant in TFMS, the Authority must: (a) give a TFMS registration number to the applicant; and (b) tell the applicant in writing of the number. (5) If the Authority decides not to register an applicant, the Authority must give the applicant written reasons for the decision and tell the applicant in writing that the applicant may apply to have the decision reconsidered.
