CONSTRUCTION OCCUPATIONS (LICENSING) ACT 2004 (NO. 12 OF 2004) - SECT 53

End of automatic licence suspension

    (1)     This section applies if the licence of a construction practitioner has been automatically suspended under 1 or more of the following sections:

              •     section 48 (Automatic suspension of individual licence);

              •     section 49 (Automatic suspension of corporate licence);

              •     section 50 (Automatic suspension of partnership licence);

              •     section 51 (Automatic suspension of building surveyors licence);

              •     section 52 (Automatic suspension of plumbing plan certifiers licence).

    (2)     The registrar must revoke the suspension if satisfied that the cause of the suspension no longer exists.

    (3)     The registrar may revoke the suspension if satisfied that the circumstance that caused the suspension will not put consumers of the construction practitioner's construction services at a greater risk from using the services than if the thing had not happened.

    (4)     A revocation must be in writing given to the licensee.

    (5)     The suspension ends 3 months after the day it begins, unless otherwise revoked.

Note     The suspension on a licence may be held over to a new licence if the suspended licence expires without being renewed (see s 65).
