   (a)  a written application for renewal at least 1 month before the expiry
        of the licence; and

   (b)  the necessary consent and information required by subregulation (2);
        and

   (c)  the fee prescribed in Part 6.

(2) For the purpose of enabling the Authority to assess whether a licence
should be renewed-

   (a)  if the licensee is a natural person, he or she must-

   (i)  provide the Authority with his or her specified proof of identity (if
        not previously provided); and

   (ii) consent to the Authority obtaining, and provide sufficient information
        to enable the Authority to obtain, known information concerning the
        licensee to determine whether he or she has satisfied the requirements
        of regulation 205 to hold an HCDG licence; and

   (b)  if the licensee is a body corporate, other than a public company-

   (i)  the application for renewal must be accompanied by the nomination of
        at least one director or person concerned in the management of the
        body corporate who has agreed to the nomination; and

   (ii) that nominated person must provide the Authority with specified proof
        of his or her identity (if not previously provided); and

   (iii) that nominated person must consent to the Authority obtaining, and
        provide sufficient information to enable the Authority to obtain,
        known information concerning the person to determine whether he or she
        has satisfied the requirements of regulation 205 to be a director or
        person concerned in the management of a body corporate that holds an
        HCDG licence; and

   (c)  in the case of all bodies corporate-

   (i)  the application must be accompanied by the nomination of a natural
        person who has agreed to the nomination and who is to be responsible
        for the security of the goods under the licence (who may or may not be
        the person nominated under paragraph (b)); and

   (ii) the person nominated under subparagraph (i) must provide the Authority
        with his or her specified proof of identity (if not previously
        provided); and

   (iii) the person nominated under subparagraph (i) must consent to the
        Authority obtaining, and provide sufficient information to enable the
        Authority to obtain, known information concerning the person to
        determine whether the person has satisfied the requirements of
        regulation 205 to be responsible for the security of the HCDG under an
        HCDG licence.

(3) Nothing in this regulation requires a person to undergo a security
assessment if the person has previously undergone a security assessment under
the same name under these Regulations or the Dangerous Goods (Explosives)
Regulations 2000.
