139C: Chief executive may reinstate accepted notice

You could also call this:

"The boss can let a notice work again if the reasons for stopping it are gone"

The chief executive can bring back a notice that was previously accepted but then suspended. This can happen if the chief executive believes that the reasons for suspending the notice are no longer true. You might think of this like a teacher allowing a student back into class after they were sent out, once the student has fixed their behaviour.
