79D Notice to be given of suspension or disqualification

(1) This section applies if, under section 79B
(a) a person’s Queensland driver licence, or authority to drive on a Queensland road under a non-Queensland driver licence, is suspended; or
(b) a person is disqualified from obtaining or holding a Queensland driver licence.
(2) As soon as practicable after the person is charged with the offence to which the suspension or disqualification relates—
(a) a police officer must give the person a notice about the suspension or disqualification, in the approved form, for the person’s information; and
(b) the commissioner must give the chief executive notice about the details of the suspension or disqualification.
(3) Failure by a police officer or the commissioner to give notice under subsection (2) (a) or (b) about the suspension or disqualification does not invalidate the suspension or disqualification, or affect anything done in relation to the suspension or disqualification unless, in relation to a notice under subsection (2) (a) , the police officer has no reasonable excuse for failing to give the notice.
