                (a) cancel the registration of a registered migration agent by
                     removing his or her name from the register; or
                (b) suspend his or her registration; or
                (c) caution him or her;
              if it becomes satisfied that:
                (d) the agent’s application for registration was known by the
                     agent to be false or misleading in a material particular; or
                (e) the agent becomes bankrupt; or
                 (f) the agent is not a person of integrity or is otherwise not a fit
                     and proper person to give immigration assistance; or
                (g) an individual related by employment to the agent is not a
                     person of integrity; or
                (h) the agent has not complied with the Code of Conduct
                     prescribed under section 314.
               Note:      If the Authority is considering making a decision under this section, it
                          must invite the registered migration agent to make a submission: see

              migration agent if any registration status charge payable by him or
              her remains unpaid after the time when it becomes due for
              payment.
