Narcotic Control Regulations

Version of section 13.2 from 2010-10-21 to 2019-12-08:

  •  (1) The Minister shall suspend a permit without prior notice if

    • (a) the dealer’s licence as it pertains to the narcotic to be imported or exported has expired or has been suspended or revoked;

    • (b) the Minister has reasonable grounds to believe that the suspension is necessary to protect public health, safety or security;

    • (c) the Minister has reasonable grounds to believe that the continuation of the permit would present a risk of a narcotic being diverted to an illicit market or use; or

    • (d) the import or export would contravene the laws of the country of export or import, or a country of transit or transhipment.

  • (2) A decision of the Minister to suspend a permit, takes effect as soon as the Minister notifies the holder of the decision and provides a written report of the reasons for the suspension.

  • (3) A person whose permit is suspended under subsection (1) may, within 10 days after receiving the notice of suspension, provide the Minister with reasons why the suspension is unfounded.
