Western Australian Current Acts Western Australian Current Acts (1) An application for
the renewal, or where its operation is suspended the re-instatement, of an
approval, a permit of a continuing nature or a certificate shall be made in
writing as prescribed but need not, unless the Commission by notice in writing
to the applicant so directs, contain or be accompanied by the information
furnished at the time of the original application by that person in so far as
that is stated to remain unaltered, but shall be supported by such further or
other information as the Commission may require.
(2) Subject to
section 49(2), the application for the renewal or reinstatement of an
approval, permit or certificate shall be dealt with at the discretion of the
Commission as though it were an application for the grant of a new approval or
for the issue of a new permit or certificate and, except where subsection (3)
applies, the holding of an approval, permit or certificate does not confer any
right of renewal.
(3) Where an
application for renewal is duly made to the Commission and the Commission
considers that the application can not be disposed of prior to the date on
which the then current approval, permit or certificate will lapse, the
Commission —
(a) may
extend the operation of the then current approval, permit or certificate for
such period as may be necessary for the application to be disposed of finally;
and
(b)
shall notify the applicant and amend the register accordingly.
