20AA. Process for reducing duration of registration



(1) Before reducing the duration of a person's registration as a fundraiser
under section 20AAA, the Director-

   (a)  must give the person a written notice-

   (i)  stating that the Director is considering whether to reduce the
        duration of the person's registration and the reasons why the Director
        is considering doing so; and

   (ii) inviting the person to make, within the time specified in the notice,
        a submission in relation to whether or not the Director should reduce
        the duration of the person's registration; and

   (b)  must consider any submission made by the person within the specified
        time.

(2) The Director must not specify a period of less than 7 days for the
purposes of subsection (1)(a)(ii).





(3) If the Director decides to reduce the duration of the person's
registration after considering any submission referred to in subsection
(1)(b), the Director must give the person a second written notice stating that
the duration of the registration is reduced.

(4) The Director must not, under subsection (3), specify a date on which the
person's registration is to end that is less than 28 days after the date on
which notice under that subsection was given to the person.
