64Procedure on hearing of objection

64 Procedure on hearing of objection (1) This section applies to the Local Court when hearing an objection to a fortification removal order. (2) The Local Court must, if convenient to the Court, be constituted by the Local Court Judge or justices of the peace who issued the fortification removal order to which the objection relates. (3) The Local Court: (a) must consider the notice of objection; and (b) may hear evidence by or for the objector and the Commissioner; and (c) must determine whether there is a ground for making a fortification removal order and if it is appropriate to do so. (4) The Local Court must: (a) if it determines there is a ground for making a fortification removal order and it is appropriate to do so – confirm or vary the fortification removal order; or (b) if it determines otherwise – revoke the fortification removal order. (5) If the fortification removal order is confirmed or varied as a result of a decision by the Local Court, the period of time allowed for compliance with the order, as specified in the order, is taken to start on the day of the Court's decision (unless the Court specifies otherwise).
