§ 9 — Revocation of section 7(3) approval

9.—(1) The LTA may revoke the approval given to a person in respect of an EV charger under section 7(3) if the LTA is of the opinion that —(a)

the model of that EV charger has ceased to satisfy the safety and performance standards prescribed to be a homologated model;

(b)

the section 7(3) approval was procured by fraud or misrepresentation;

(c)

the LTA becomes aware of a circumstance that would have permitted the LTA to refuse to give the section 7(3) approval, had the LTA been aware of the circumstance immediately before giving that approval; or

(d)

revocation is appropriate and necessary so as —(i)

to alleviate or minimise a serious and imminent threat or risk to the security of the supply of electricity to consumers in Singapore; or

(ii)

to avoid any actual or imminent occurrence that may cause the death of, or a serious injury to, any individual or serious damage to any property from the use of any EV charger of that model.

(2) Unless not practicable in the circumstances, the LTA must, before revoking any section 7(3) approval under subsection (1), give written notice to the person to whom the approval was given —(a)

stating that the LTA intends to revoke the approval;

(b)

specifying the grounds for the proposed revocation; and

(c)

specifying the time (being at least 7 days after the date of service of notice on the person to whom the approval was given) within which written representations may be made to the LTA with respect to the proposed revocation.

(3) The LTA may, after considering any written representation under subsection (2)(c), decide to revoke, with effect from the effective date in subsection (5), any section 7(3) approval granted with respect to a model of EV charger either —(a)

absolutely for all EV chargers of that model; or

(b)

prospectively without affecting EV chargers of that model to which approval labels have been affixed before that specified date.

(4) Where the LTA decides to revoke a section 7(3) approval in respect of a model of EV charger, the LTA must serve a notice of its decision on the person to whom the approval was given.

(5) A decision to revoke a section 7(3) approval takes effect from the date on which the notice under subsection (4) is given, or on such other date as may be specified in the notice.

(6) In the case of a prospective revocation under subsection (3)(b) of a model of EV charger without affecting EV chargers of that model to which approval labels have been affixed before a specified date, every EV charger not affected is to be treated, for the purposes of this Act, as subject to a grandfathering arrangement because of that prospective revocation.
