Enforcement of access determinations
271 Enforcement of access determinations
If the Court is satisfied, on the application of a party to an access determination, that another party to the determination has engaged, is engaging, or is proposing to engage in conduct that constitutes a contravention of the determination, the Court may make all or any of the following orders:
an order granting an injunction on such terms as the Court thinks appropriate—
restraining the other party from engaging in the conduct; or
if the conduct involves refusing or failing to do something—requiring the other party to do that thing;
an order directing the other party to compensate the applicant for loss or damage suffered as a result of the contravention;
any other order that the Court thinks appropriate.
The revocation of an access determination does not affect any remedy under subsection (1) in respect of a contravention of the determination that occurred when the determination was in force.
If the Court has power under subsection (1) to grant an injunction restraining a person from engaging in particular conduct, or requiring a person to do anything, the Court may make any other orders (including granting an injunction) that it thinks appropriate against any other person who was involved in the contravention concerned.
A reference in this section to a person involved in the contravention is a reference to a person who has—
aided, abetted, counselled or procured the contravention; or
induced the contravention, whether through threats or promises or otherwise;
or
been in any way (directly or indirectly) knowingly concerned in or a party to the contravention; or
conspired with others to effect the contravention.
