Section 41
Cancellation of import permits and storage permits
of Building and Construction Authority Act 1999
(1)
The Authority may, after calling upon the licensee concerned to show cause within such reasonable time as the Authority may allow as to why the import permit granted in respect of any consignment of essential construction material to be imported should not be cancelled, by order cancel the import permit if the Authority has reasonable grounds to believe that —
the import permit had been obtained by fraud or misrepresentation;
the essential construction material is extracted or won from the same site from which any failed construction material is extracted or won;
the licensee’s licence is suspended or the licensee is the subject of any proceedings under section 40;
the essential construction material no longer complies with a prescribed requirement mentioned in section 37(1)(c); or
it is in the public interest to do so.
(2)
Without affecting subsection (1), every import permit granted to any person is deemed cancelled upon the revocation of any licence granted to the same person.
(3)
The Authority may, after calling upon the licensee concerned to show cause within such reasonable time as the Authority may allow as to why the storage permit granted in respect of any premises should not be cancelled, by order cancel the storage permit if the Authority has reasonable grounds to believe that —
the storage permit had been obtained by fraud or misrepresentation;
any condition of the storage permit has been breached; or
any essential construction material subject to an isolation order is not stored at those premises in accordance with this Part or any regulations made under this Act.[31O
