17 Revocation of licence—additional reasons—the Act, s 26(1)(d)

(1) The Commissioner may revoke a licence if the Commissioner considers it would be contrary to the public interest for the person to whom the licence is granted to continue to hold the licence.

(2) For the purpose of determining whether it would be contrary to the public interest for a person to continue to hold a licence, the Commissioner may have regard to a criminal intelligence report or other criminal information held in relation to the person that—

(a) is relevant to the activities carried on under the class of licence held by the person, or

(b) causes the Commissioner to conclude improper conduct is likely to occur if the person continues to hold the licence, or

(c) causes the Commissioner not to have confidence improper conduct will not occur if the person continues to hold the licence.

(3) The Commissioner is not, under the Act or any other Act or law, required to give any reasons for revoking a licence if the giving of those reasons would disclose the existence or content of any criminal intelligence report or other criminal information referred to in subsection (2).
