Contravention of deemed condition
17 Contravention of deemed condition
This section applies to the following persons—
an authority holder;
another person who is acting under an authority granted under another Act.
A person to whom this section applies must comply with each deemed condition of the authority.
If a person contravenes a deemed condition, the person may be dealt with under the Act under which the authority was granted as if the person had contravened an offset condition imposed under that Act.
Without limiting subsection (3), the person may be prosecuted under the other Act for a breach of a deemed condition and, if convicted, is liable to a penalty in the same way and to the same extent as if the person had breached an offset condition imposed under the other Act.
