Section 58BL — Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)

Simplified outline of this Subdivision

Each regulated entity for a regulated sector must take reasonable steps to detect scams. This includes:

(a) investigating, in a timely way, activities that are the subjects of its actionable scam intelligence; and

(b) identifying, in a timely way, its consumers that have or may have been impacted by such activities.

The SPF code for the sector may include sector‑specific provisions for this principle.
