What are Licence Suspension Charges?

Licence suspension charges are the reasons officers pick when suspending a licence from the Police panel. Each one sets how long the suspension lasts and any demerit points. You can have up to 50.
Until you add at least one suspension charge, officers can’t suspend licences.

Using Them in Templates

Record templates can use these charges too, through a licence suspension section. If you delete a charge a template uses, that template can’t be filed until it’s updated. See Template Editor. For how officers suspend a licence, see Suspending a Licence.
