National Measurement Act 1960

If a physical element of an offence against a provision of Part IV, V, VI or VII is committed by an agent of a person (the principal) other than a body corporate acting within the actual or apparent scope of his or her authority, the physical element must also be attributed to the principal.

If intention, knowledge or recklessness is a fault element in relation to a physical element of the offence, that fault element must be attributed to the principal if the principal expressly, tacitly or impliedly authorised or permitted the commission of the offence.
