As far as I am aware, I don't think there is a provision for people not to use firearms if they have had their licence revoked. They fall in the same category as "unlicensed" so therefore can use one under direct supervision. Unless of course it is a court directed order (which is usually only while a person is on bail). I've run into at least one person that was prosecuted for careless use causing death as he was in possession of a firearm, still hunting in the bush with a firearms license holder.

Read the Arms Act and see what it says. Then you might have more of a clue than "As far as I'm aware".
