Penalties for breaching licence terms

APAD may take any of the following actions when an operator breaches the conditions of its licence or the Land Public Transport Act 2010:

  • Suspension of the operator licence
  • Cancellation (revocation) of the licence
  • Restriction on new licence applications by the same applicant
  • Statutory penalties (fines, court action) under Act 715

The exact action depends on the severity of the breach and the operator's prior compliance record.
