145. (1) (a) Paragraph (b) applies where the MARA is of the opinion that a relevant ground may apply to a holder and the potential gravity of such ground (whether for safety or environmental reasons or otherwise), if it were found that it does so apply, is so great that the immediate suspension of the relevant authorisation concerned is warranted until steps or further steps are taken under Chapter 3 F52[, 3A or 5].

(b) The MARA may, on notice to the holder, make an application in a summary manner to the High Court for an order to suspend the relevant authorisation.

(2) The High Court may determine an application under subsection (1) by—

(a) making any order that it considers appropriate, including an order suspending the relevant authorisation the subject of the application for such period, or until the occurrence of such event, as is specified in the order, and

(b) giving to the MARA any other direction that the High Court considers appropriate.

(3) The MARA shall, on complying with a direction of the High Court under subsection (2)(b), give notice in writing to the holder concerned of the MARA’s compliance with the direction.

(4) Sections 151(3) and (4) and 158(6) shall, with all necessary modifications, apply to a relevant authorisation suspended under subsection (2) as they apply to a relevant authorisation suspended pursuant to a decision confirmed or given under section 149(3) or 150(2).
