Aug. 31, 2024, evening

I did the original Cert111 course, waited over 2 years to get my AG approval, was a celebrant for over 10years (doing only 5 or 6 weddings a year). I was (still am) working full time so doing wedings was a part time encdeavour with the long term idea I might do more when I retired from full time work. I did my OPD each year, maintained my skills etc etc. One year (over 3 years ago), while overseas, my registraion was ue. I totally forgot about it, returned home to an email saying my annual fee was 30 days overdue. I immediately rang and was told 'too late'. When I asked what were my options, i was told 'do the CertIV course and reapply. I decided to not bother. My simple question, what can be done about such idiotic red tape? I traine people to get a High Risk work licence (to operate a crane etc). The governemnt issued licence can be expired by up to 12 months before they refuse to renew it. Regards
