 (2) On receipt of such an application, the Commission must, by notice in writing given to any persons who appear to the Commission to be interested:
 (a) indicate that the revocation of the authorisation, and the substitution of another authorisation for it, has been applied for; and
 (b) indicate the basis upon which the revocation and substitution has been applied for and the nature of the substituted authorisation so applied for; and
 (c) invite submissions in respect of the revocation and substitution within a period specified by the Commission.
