(3) The notice may be—
(a)delivered in person, in which case the member is treated as receiving it when it is delivered; or

(4) The initial period of suspension must not exceed 6 months.
(5) The Welsh Ministers may review the suspension at any time.

(b)suspend the person for another period of not more than 6 months from the expiry of the current period.
