(b) The department may deny an application for a permit if it is shown that the applicant is not of good moral character or that it would be a danger or not in the best interest of the public health, safety, and welfare if the applicant were issued a permit.
(2) The department may deny, suspend, or revoke any registration required by the provisions of ss. 499.001-499.081 for the violation of any provision of ss. 499.001-499.081 or of any rules adopted under those sections.
(3) The department may revoke or suspend a permit:

(b) If the permit was procured, or attempted to be procured, for any other person by making or causing to be made any false representation; or
(c) If the permittee has violated any provision of ss. 499.001-499.081 or rules adopted under those sections.
(4) If any permit issued under ss. 499.001-499.081 is revoked or suspended, the owner, manager, operator, or proprietor of the establishment shall cease to operate as the permit authorized, from the effective date of the suspension or revocation until the person is again registered with the department and possesses the required permit. If a permit is revoked or suspended, the owner, manager, or proprietor shall remove all signs and symbols that identify the operation as premises permitted as a drug wholesaling establishment; drug, device, or cosmetic manufacturing establishment; or retail establishment.
