(b) refuse to grant or renew the licence.
(2) The chief executive must not grant or renew a licence if the applicant is not eligible for that type or class of licence.
(3) If the chief executive decides to grant or renew the licence, the chief executive must promptly give the applicant the licence.
(4) If the chief executive decides to refuse to grant or renew the licence, the chief executive must promptly give the applicant a written notice stating--
(a) the decision; and
(b) the reasons for the decision; and
(c) that the applicant may contest the refusal by--
