91R Revocation of clearing permit by Board
(1) If the Board considers, on its own initiative, that a clearing permit
should be revoked, the Board must, by written notice to the holder
of the clearing permit, give the holder of the permit the opportunity
to give reasons to the Board why the permit should not be revoked.
(2) The notice under subsection (1) must specify:
(a) a reasonable time by which the holder of the clearing permit
must provide the reasons; and
(b) if the notice has been given because the Board considers the
holder of the clearing permit has not complied with the permit:
(i) details of the non-compliance; and
(ii) if the non-compliance can be remedied – that the holder
of the permit must take specified actions to remedy the
non-compliance within a reasonable period as specified
in the notice.
(3) After the expiry of the response time specified in the notice, the
Board may revoke the clearing permit if the Board considers it
appropriate, having regard to:
(a) whether or not the holder of the permit has taken appropriate
actions that will remedy the non-compliance, including any
actions mentioned in subsection (2)(b)(ii); and
Pastoral Land Act 1992 77
(b) any reasons given by the holder of the permit under
subsection (1); and
(4) If the Board revokes the clearing permit, the Board must lodge with
the Registrar-General the required number of copies of the written
notice of revocation for registration.
(5) On registration by the Registrar-General of the written notice of
revocation, the clearing permit ceases to have effect.
