OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY REGULATIONS 2017 - REG 485

Application for the renewal of licence (except a high risk work licence)

    (1)     This regulation does not apply to a high risk work licence.

    (2)     A licence holder may apply to the Authority to renew the licence, but may only do so—

        (a)     in the case of a major hazard facility licence, at least 6 months before the date the licence is due to expire; or

        (b)     in any other case, at least 60 days before the date the licence is due to expire.

Notes

1     Regulation 532 enables the Authority to specify the form of applications and to specify other information and documents that must be included
in or with applications.

2     If a licence holder did not apply for a renewal of the licence within the period permitted by subregulation (2), it will be necessary for the licence holder to apply for a new licence.

    (3)     For the purposes of this regulation, regulation 452 applies as if a reference in that regulation to an application for a licence were a reference to an application to renew a licence.

    (4)     If a person applies to renew a licence under subregulation (2) and before the licence expires the Authority gives the person written notice that it intends to refuse to renew the licence, the licence continues to have effect, even if its expiry date passes, until the relevant period specified in regulation 489.

    (5)     In the case of an application to renew a major hazard facility licence, if the Authority gives the applicant written notice under regulation 488(1)(b) the licence continues to have effect, even if its expiry date passes, until the earlier of the following—

        (a)     the application is granted or refused;

        (b)     the date specified in the notice.
