5 Simplified outline of this instrument

This instrument makes technical adjustments to the Act relating to the exemption from the requirement to hold an Australian financial services licence by inserting new subparagraphs in subsection 911A(2), paragraph 911B(1)(e) and section 1011B of the Act. These new provisions extend the operation of those sections to persons exempted under subsection 926A(2) of the Act.

This instrument also makes further machinery changes to the Act relating to the lodgement or publishing of supplementary or replacement documents. This change operates to extend the relevant sections to instruments made for those purposes, providing that references to the original document in an ASIC instrument include any supplementary or replacement document lodged or published after the original document.
