sec.282 Competitive neutrality complaints started before commencement
This section applies if— before the commencement— a person made a competitive neutrality complaint in relation to a business entity under chapter 5 of the repealed Business Activities Regulation; and the council appointed a referee to investigate and report on the complaint; and at the commencement— the referee’s investigation and report on the complaint has not been finalised; and the complaint has not been withdrawn. Chapter 5 of the repealed Business Activities Regulation continues to apply in relation to the competitive neutrality complaint despite the repeal of those provisions under this regulation. Without limiting subsection (2)— the referee must continue to investigate and report on the competitive neutrality complaint; and the council must comply with sections 136 and 138 of the repealed Business Activities Regulation. To remove any doubt, it is declared that chapter 3, part 2, division 6 applies in relation to a competitive neutrality complaint about a business entity if— the complaint was made before the commencement; and at the commencement, the council had not appointed a referee to investigate and report on the complaint.
