This section applies to a particular Ministerially‑directed report given to the Commission by a carrier, or a carriage service provider, in accordance with the record‑keeping rules.

The Commission:

may make:

copies of the report or copies of extracts from the report; and

such other relevant material (if any) as the Commission determines;

may also give a written direction to the carrier or provider requiring it to take such action as is specified in the direction to inform the public, or such persons as are specified in the direction, that the report is, or the extracts are, so available.

For specification by class, see subsection 33(3AB) of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901.

The Commission may make:

copies of the report or copies of extracts from the report; and

such other relevant material (if any) as the Commission determines;

to particular persons; and

on such terms and conditions (if any) as the Commission determines.

If subsection (3) applies, the Commission must take reasonable steps to inform the persons who access copies of the report or extracts of the terms and conditions (if any) on which the copies are available.

If, in accordance with subsection (3), a person accesses a copy of the report or extracts, the person must comply with the terms and conditions (if any) on which the copy is available.

A person commits an offence if:

the person is subject to a direction under paragraph (2)(b); and

the person omits to do an act; and

the omission breaches the direction.

A person commits an offence if:

the person is subject to a requirement under subsection (5); and
