22 Low‑income measures
(1) The licensee must offer products and arrangements to low‑income customers (the low‑income package) that have been endorsed by low‑income consumer advocacy groups. (2) The licensee must comply with the low‑income package as in force or existing from time to time. (3) The licensee must maintain and adequately resource a Low‑income Measures Assessment Committee (LIMAC), comprising representatives of low‑income consumer advocacy groups that work on behalf of people on a low income. (4) The role of LIMAC will be to assess proposed changes to the low‑income package or to the marketing plan for the low‑income package. (5) The licensee must have in place a marketing plan for making low‑income consumers aware of the low‑income package, being a plan that has been approved by LIMAC. (6) The licensee must seek and consider the views of LIMAC before it makes any significant change to the low‑income package.
Note: It is intended that the licensee may make minor non‑substantive changes to the low‑income package (such as minor editorial or typographical corrections) without having to seek and consider the views of LIMAC. LIMAC is to be consulted on other proposed changes to the low‑income package.
