(2) If: (a) an application is made to the Federal Court or a Supreme Court under subsection 34B(1) in respect of an act or omission by a person; and (b) the person is dealt with by the Court under that section in respect of the act or omission; the person is not liable to be prosecuted for an offence in respect of that act or omission. (3) If a person is prosecuted for an offence in respect of an act or omission referred to in subsection 34B(1), an application must not be made under subsection 34B(1) in respect of that act or omission.
