120—Refusal to grant accreditation—process
(1) If the regulator
proposes to refuse to grant an accreditation, the regulator must give the
applicant a written notice—
(a)
informing the applicant of the reasons for the proposed refusal; and
(b)
advising the applicant that the applicant may by a specified date (being not
less than 28 days after the notice is given), make a submission to the
regulator in relation to the proposed refusal.
(2) After the date
specified in a notice under subregulation (1)(b), the regulator
must—
(a) if
the applicant has made a submission in relation to the proposed refusal to
grant the accreditation—consider that submission; and
(b)
whether or not the applicant has made a submission—decide whether to
grant or refuse to grant the accreditation; and
(c)
within 14 days after making that decision, give the applicant written
notice of the decision, including the reasons for the decision.
Note—
A refusal to grant an accreditation is a reviewable decision (see
regulation 676).
