14.1
|
In some circumstances, notably licensing and authorisations made under the Environmental Protection Act 1990, the revocation of a licence or authorisation may be used as an enforcement method.
|
|
14.2
|
While this is a legitimate enforcement action, it is always remembered that the above may involve the removal of livelihood, sometimes without reference to an independent arbiter or the courts. Accordingly, revocation is used only as a last resort, when other sanctions are either inappropriate or have been tried without success.
|
|
14.3
|
No revocation action will be taken without reference to line management and committee authority may be required.
|
|
14.4
|
Where revocation action is taken, it will normally follow at least two warnings, in writing. However, it is recognised that this will not always be possible, especially in the case of some types of licensing offence.
|
|
14.5
|
When revocation action is taken, those concerned will be informed of any rights which they may have to appeal and be told of any time limits or other constraints which may apply.
