        (1)         A court making a violence restraining order against a person may order that, for a term set by the court or until a court orders to the contrary, the person be disqualified from holding any licence, permit, or approval, or any particular licence, permit, or approval, under this Act.

        (2)         In subsection (1) —

        violence restraining order has the same meaning as it has in section 11(4).

        (4)         The court is to ensure that details of the restraining order and the disqualification order are made known to the Commissioner as soon as is practicable.
