on any of the grounds specified in subsection (3) of section 5;
if the licensee fails to comply with any direction given by the Director under subsection (1) or (2) of section 11;
if the Director is of the opinion that the private hospital, medical clinic or clinical laboratory is managed or conducted in such a manner that the revocation or suspension of the licence, as the case may be, is desirable in the public interest; or
if the private hospital, medical clinic or clinical laboratory has ceased to operate as such.
(2)
Before revoking or suspending a licence, the Director shall give notice to the licensee of the ground or grounds on which it is proposed to revoke, or suspend the licence and shall afford the licensee an opportunity of showing cause why the licence should not be revoked or suspended.
