508 Amendment imposed by regulator
(1) The regulator may, on its own initiative, amend an asbestos removal licence, including by amending the licence to:
(a) vary or delete a condition of the licence; or
(b) impose a new condition on the licence.
(2) If the regulator proposes to amend a licence, the regulator must give the licence holder written notice:
(b) advising the licence holder that the licence holder may, by a specified date (being not less than 28 days after giving the notice), make a submission to the regulator in relation to the proposed amendment.
(a) if the licence holder has made a submission in relation to the proposed amendment—consider that submission; and
(b) whether or not the licence holder has made a submission—decide:
(iii) to make a different amendment that results from consideration of any submission made by the licence holder; and
(c) within 14 days after making that decision, give the licence holder written notice that:
(i) sets out the amendment, if any, or states that no amendment is to be made; and
(ii) if a submission was made in relation to the proposed amendment—sets out the regulator’s reasons for making the amendment; and
(iii) specifies the date (being not less than the 28 days after the licence holder is given the notice) on which the amendment, if any, takes effect.
Note: A decision to amend a licence is a reviewable decision (see regulation 676).
