Limitation on liability where information or documents provided in good faith or when required to do so
20ZZ Limitation on liability where information or documents provided in good faith or when required to do so
A person is neither liable to a proceeding, nor subject to a liability, under an enactment merely because the person, in good faith and in relation to the VET Student Loans Ombudsman’s functions or powers:
gives information to the VET Student Loans Ombudsman (other than in accordance with a requirement under section 9); or
gives a document or other record to the VET Student Loans Ombudsman (other than in accordance with a requirement under section 9).
For information, documents or other records given in accordance with a requirement under section 9, see subsections 9(4) and (5).
To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the person from being liable to a proceeding, or being subject to a liability, for conduct of the person that is revealed by the information, document or record given to the VET Student Loans Ombudsman.
This section does not limit section 37.
