A licence shall not be issued to authorise the operation of a people mover system or a part thereof— where the proposal for the system has been approved by the Governor in Council under section 15 —until after the date of practical completion of the system or, as the case may be, the part thereof as provided for in the agreement relating to its construction between the chief executive and the proposer; and until the chief executive is satisfied that the system or, as the case may be, the part thereof has been shown by practical testing to be safe and complies with the requirements of law relating to its mechanical and structural safety. The chief executive may, upon the written request of the holder of the licence or, where it is leased, the lessee, vary, alter or otherwise amend the conditions specified in a licence. s 18 amd 1995 No. 9 s 92 sch 1 (sec.18-ssec.1) The chief executive may from time to time issue a licence that authorises the operation of a people mover system.
