(1) Before cancelling a cabling licence, AUSTEL must give to the licensee a written notice:
(a) stating that it proposes to cancel the licence; and
(b) inviting the licensee to make representations to AUSTEL, within 21 days after receiving the notice, concerning the proposed cancellation.
(2) The licensee may, within 21 days after receiving the notice, make such representations to AUSTEL. (3) AUSTEL must give due consideration to any representations so made. (4) If AUSTEL decides not to proceed with the cancellation, it must give to the licensee written notice to that effect. (5) Failure to comply strictly with subsection (1) does not affect the validity of the notice, or of a cancellation of a cabling licence, if the requirements of that subsection are substantially complied with.
