After a marine licence is issued

We can vary, suspend or revoke a marine licence on various grounds. These include:

  • a breach of any provisions
  • a change in circumstances relating to the environment or human health
  • an increase in scientific knowledge
  • in the interests of safety of navigation.

We can also do so far any other reason that appears relevant to us.
