132: Offence to fail to comply with Director’s requirement to withdraw or revoke authorisation

You could also call this:

"Breaking the rules: not following the Director's orders to cancel or stop an authorisation"

If you do not follow the Director's instructions to withdraw or revoke an authorisation, you can commit an offence. The Director might tell you to withdraw an authorisation under section 127(2)(e) or revoke an authorisation under section 130(b). You will only be in trouble if you do not have a good reason for not following the instructions.

If you commit this offence, you can be fined up to $35,000 when you are convicted. This is what happens if you break the rules and do not follow the Director's requirements. You must have a reasonable excuse to avoid getting into trouble.
