135 Tribunal may grant exemptions
The Tribunal may, on application by a person, by order, grant to the person an exemption from the operation of a specified provision of Part II, IIAA, IIA, IIB, III, IV, IVA, IVB or IVC.
The Tribunal may, on application by a person to whom an exemption from a provision of Part II, IIAA, IIA, IIB, III, IV, IVA, IVB or IVC has been granted under subsection (1), by order, grant to the person a further exemption from the operation of that provision.
The Tribunal shall cause notice of an application for an exemption, a further exemption or the variation of an exemption or further exemption to be given by newspaper advertisement or otherwise, in such form and manner as the Tribunal may direct.
[(4) deleted]
Section 113 applies to an application under this section in the same way as that section applies to an inquiry.
An exemption or further exemption —
may be granted subject to such terms and conditions as are specified in the order; and
may be varied either on the application of the person to whom the exemption is granted or at the instance of the Tribunal; and
may be expressed to apply only in such circumstances, or in relation to such activities, as are specified in the order; and
shall be granted for a period specified in the order not exceeding 5 years.
