Validity of suspension of a customs broker licence was assessed under the Customs Broker Licensing Regulations. Tribunal held the statutory conditions for suspension were satisfied because an inquiry was contemplated and the suspension predated or occurred during inquiry, so suspension complied with the rule for immediate action; continuation after a hearing complied with procedural requirement and recorded reasons satisfied internal instructions, resulting in upholding the suspension and dismissal of the appeal. Findings also addressed customs broker duties, due diligence failures, mis-declaration, supervision and vicarious liability for employee acts, noted as bases for disciplinary proceedings.
