Public Health Act 2016

The effect of an exemption is that, to the extent of the terms of the exemption, the provisions of this Act or the regulations to which the exemption applies are not binding on —

the exemption‑holder; or

the Crown, to the extent that non‑compliance with those provisions by the exemption‑holder would otherwise give rise to any right or remedy against the Crown.

Failure to comply with a condition of an exemption —

does not deprive the exemption‑holder, the Crown or any other person of the protection of the exemption; and

does not give rise to any criminal or civil liability; and

does not of itself give rise to any right or remedy.
