### sec.19 Notice of rejection of application to issue or renew licence
If an authorised officer rejects an application for a licence or renewal of a licence, the authorised officer must give the applicant a notice of rejection in the approved form stating the specific reasons for the rejection.
If a reason an authorised officer rejects an application is criminal intelligence or other information that is not publicly available, it is enough that the notice under subsection (1) states the specific reason for rejection as ‘confidential information’.
The notice may be given to the applicant by sending it to the applicant by security post at the address shown on the application.
