SURVEYORS ACT 2001 (REPEALED) - SECT 18

    (1)     A person is eligible to be registered as a surveyor if the person—

        (a)     has the educational qualifications, practical training and field experience that, under the regulations, are sufficient for the practice of surveying; or

        (b)     is entitled to be registered under mutual recognition legislation; or

        (c)     is registered, licensed or otherwise authorised to practise as a surveyor of land in a reciprocating jurisdiction; or

        (d)     satisfies the commissioner that the person is competent to practise surveying by having, in a place outside Australia other than a reciprocating jurisdiction, successfully completed the courses of study, and obtained the practical experience, that the commissioner considers appropriate.

    (2)     However, a surveyor whose registration is suspended is not eligible to be registered.

    (3)     Also, a person who is not authorised to practise surveying because his or her registration, licence or other authorisation as a surveyor of land has been cancelled or otherwise terminated, or suspended, whether under this Act (other than section 23 (3)) or any other law of the Territory or another place, is eligible to be registered only if—

        (a)     the person is entitled to be registered under mutual recognition legislation; or

        (b)     for a cancellation or termination—the commissioner is satisfied that the reasons that led to the cancellation or termination no longer apply or are not relevant.
