245AX Treatment of partnerships
This Subdivision, and any other provision of this Act to the extent that it relates to this Subdivision, apply to a partnership as if it were a person, but with the changes set out in this section.
An offence against this Subdivision that would otherwise be committed by a partnership is taken to have been committed by each partner in the partnership, at the time the offence is committed, who:
did the relevant act; or
aided, abetted, counselled or procured the relevant act; or
was in any way knowingly concerned in, or party to, the relevant act (whether directly or indirectly or whether by any act of the partner).
A civil penalty provision in this Subdivision that would otherwise be contravened by a partnership is taken to have been contravened by each partner in the partnership, at the time of the conduct constituting the contravention, who:
engaged in the conduct; or
aided, abetted, counselled or procured the conduct; or
was in any way knowingly concerned in, or party to, the conduct (whether directly or indirectly or whether by any act of the partner).
