(1) If CASA reasonably needs more information or another document to allow it to consider an application, CASA may by written notice ask the applicant to give to it information, or a copy of a document, specified in the request.
Example: The person or body to whom an application for a certificate of airworthiness for an aircraft is made may ask the applicant for any other information reasonably needed by it to enable it to impose any conditions on the certificate or operational limitations on the operation of the aircraft that are necessary in the interests of the safety of other airspace users or persons on the ground or water.
(2) CASA may ask an applicant to provide evidence as to the applicant's financial standing and financial capacity if there would be likely to be an adverse effect on the safety of air navigation if the applicant were granted the authorisation applied for and either did not have the resources to carry out the functions of the authorisation or were afterwards unable to continue trading.
(3) If CASA asks an applicant:
(a) to provide information or a copy of a document under subregulation (1); or
(b) to provide evidence under subregulation (2);
CASA need not begin to consider, or may stop considering, the application until CASA receives the information, document or evidence.
