(1) A registered greenhouse and energy auditor may apply to the Regulator requesting suspension of his or her registration for a period specified in the application.
Note: A suspension could be requested because of an anticipated absence from duty for an extended period such as overseas travel, medical treatment or family needs.
(2) The application must include the following information in relation to the auditor:
(a) name and registration number;
(b) work contact details, including address, telephone number and email address;
(c) proposed commencement date of the suspension and the period of suspension.
(3) The proposed period of suspension must not be less than 3 months nor exceed 12 months.
(4) If the Regulator:
(a) receives the application under subregulation (1); and
