director (as the case may be) is a fit and proper person for the purpose; or

licence has been made subject to a condition that the licensee or the director
(as the case may be) undertake specified accredited training within a
specified time and the specified time has not elapsed or the condition has
been satisfied.
(2) If the licensing
authority is satisfied on the application of the licensee that, in view of the

approve alternative arrangements for the supervision and management of the
business.
