64 Taking regulatory action
       (1)If AMSA proposes to take regulatory action against a licensed pilot, AMSA must give the person a written notice (a regulatory notice) that:
(a) states the proposed action, including any proposed disqualification period, suspension period or variation of a pilot licence; and
(b) states the grounds for the proposed action; and
(c) tells the person that the person may, within 30 days after the person receives the notice, give a written response to AMSA about the notice.
       (2)In deciding whether to take regulatory action, AMSA must consider any response given to AMSA by the person in response to the notice.
       (3)AMSA may take the proposed regulatory action against the person if satisfied that a ground for regulatory action has been established for a person.
Note   A decision under this subsection is a reviewable decision — see section 83.
       (4)AMSA must give the person written notice of AMSA's decision and the reasons for decision.
       (5)Regulatory action under subsection (3) takes effect on the day when the notice of the decision is given to the person or, if the notice states a later date of effect, that date.

65 Emergency regulatory action
       (1)If a vessel that is being piloted is involved in a collision with another vessel, or runs aground, AMSA must immediately suspend the licence of the pilot who is piloting the vessel for 7 days after the day of the collision or grounding.
       (2)AMSA must, as soon as practicable, give a notice (an emergency suspension notice) to the pilot.
       (3)The emergency suspension notice must:
(a) be in writing; and
(b) state:
 (i) the date of issue of the notice; and
 (ii) when the suspension starts; and
 (iii) when the suspension ends; and
 (iv) the circumstances causing the emergency suspension of the licence.
       (4)AMSA must also keep a record of the emergency suspension notice.
       (5)AMSA must investigate the circumstances of the collision or grounding to determine whether the pilot's conduct contributed to the collision or grounding.
       (6)If AMSA requires further time to review the circumstances of the collision or grounding, AMSA may, before the licence suspension ends, extend the term of the suspension for a period no longer than 180 days after the collision or grounding.
       (7)If AMSA extends the term of a licence suspension under subsection (6), AMSA must as soon as practicable give notice, in writing, of the extension to the pilot.
Note   AMSA may also advise the
