Acquisition subject to notification
(1) Sections 45AF and 45AJ do not apply in relation to the making of a contract that contains a cartel provision, in so far as the cartel provision provides for an acquisition if the contract is subject to a condition that the provision will not come into force unless and until the acquisition becomes a notified acquisition. Note: A defendant bears an evidential burden in relation to the matter in this subsection (see subsection 13.3(3) of the Criminal Code and subsection (2) of this section). (2) A person who wishes to rely on subsection (1) in relation to a contravention of section 45AJ bears an evidential burden in relation to that matter.
