(2) The notice must specify:
(a) the grounds on which it is proposed to suspend or cancel the licence; and

However, if the licensee consents, the person conducting the hearing may fix a different time or place.
(3) The person conducting the hearing must:
(a) give the licensee an opportunity to be heard at the hearing; and
(b) give ASIC:
(i) a report about the hearing; and
(ii) a recommendation about the grounds in the notice on which it is proposed to suspend or cancel the licence.

(a) decide to take no further action in relation to the matter and give written advice of that decision to the licensee; or
(b) suspend the licence for a specified period, or cancel the licence, by giving written notice to the licensee.
