The authorization shall specify the effective and expiration dates of the authorization.

Subp. 2. Revocation of private agency's authorization.

When the commissioner determines that a private agency's failure to comply with parts 9543.0040 to 9543.0070, 9543.0090 to 9543.0110, and 9543.0130 demonstrates a risk of harm to persons served by licensed programs, the commissioner shall revoke the private agency's authorization to perform licensing functions under part 9543.0030, subpart 2.
