### sec.483 Provisions and term of renewed licence
The conditions of the renewed licence may be different from the conditions or other provisions of the licence being renewed.
However, a takeover condition may be imposed on a renewed licence only if the licence being renewed was subject to that condition.
The renewed licence must state its term.
The renewed licence may also state—
conditions or other provisions of the renewed licence, other than conditions or provisions that are—
inconsistent with the mandatory conditions for that type of licence; or
the same as, or substantially the same as, or inconsistent with, any relevant environmental condition for the licence; and
a day for the renewed licence to take effect.
However, the provisions of the renewed licence may exclude or restrict the carrying out of an authorised activity for the licence.
If the renewed licence is decided before the end of the term of the licence being renewed as stated in that licence (the previous term ), the term of the renewed licence is taken to start from the end of the previous term.
If the renewed licence is decided after the previous term, the term of the renewed licence starts immediately after the end of the previous term, but—
the conditions of the renewed licence do not start until the licence holder is given notice of them; and
until the notice is given, the conditions of the licence being renewed apply to the renewed licence as if they were its conditions.
