The Board’s power to set service charges has effect subject to Part VIIA of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010.

If AA receives either of the following notices, AA must give the Minister a copy of the notice:

a notice under subsection 95L(3) of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 about an inquiry into a supply of services that is the subject of a proposed determination of a service charge;

a notice under section 95ZJ of that Act withdrawing such a notice.

If AA receives a report under section 95P of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 on an inquiry held under that Act in relation to the supply of services by AA, it must give a copy of the report to the Minister.

If AA has received a notice under subsection 95L(3) of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 about an inquiry into the supply of services that is the subject of a proposed determination of a service charge, the period of 30 days referred to in subsection 54(2) does not begin until the Minister receives from AA:

a copy of a notice under paragraph (2)(b) of this section; or

a copy of the report under subsection (3) of this section in relation to the supply of services concerned.

If the Minister receives from AA a copy of a report given to AA under section 95P of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 in relation to the supply of services to which a proposed determination relates, the Minister may, in a notice under subsection 54(2), disapprove the proposed determination and substitute a fresh determination.

The Minister’s determination has effect as if it had been made by the Board under section 53.
