sec.37 Requiring further information to decide application
For making a decision about reviewing the conditions of a licence, the commissioner may, by notice given to the licensee, require the licensee to give the commissioner, within a stated period, the further information the commissioner reasonably requires to make the decision. The stated period must be at least 20 business days. The commissioner may require the information to be verified by a statutory declaration. The commissioner must give the notice to the licensee within— if the review is started by application of the licensee—40 business days after receiving the application; or if the review is started by agreement between the commissioner and the licensee—20 business days after making the agreement. If the licensee fails to comply with the notice within the stated period— for a review started by application of the licensee—the application is taken to be withdrawn; and for a review started by agreement between the commissioner and the licensee—the commissioner is taken to have decided to confirm the conditions.
