28V Suspension or revocation of a mitochondrial donation licence
(1) The NHMRC Licensing Committee may, by notice in writing given to the licence holder, suspend or revoke a mitochondrial donation licence if the Committee believes on reasonable grounds that a condition of the licence has been breached. (2) If the holder of a mitochondrial donation licence is convicted of an offence under this Act or the regulations, or the Prohibition of Human Cloning for Reproduction Act 2002, the NHMRC Licensing Committee must, by notice in writing given to the licence holder, revoke each mitochondrial donation licence held by the licence holder. (3) If the holder of a pre‑clinical research and training licence, a clinical trial research and training licence or a clinical trial licence stops being a constitutional corporation at a particular time, the NHMRC Licensing Committee is taken to have revoked the licence at that time.
