80AD Injunctions if acquisition determinations made on the basis of false or misleading information
If, on the application of the Commission, the Federal Court is satisfied that:
(a) a person is proposing to put an acquisition into effect; and
(b) the Commission made an acquisition determination under paragraph 51ABZE(1)(a) or 51ABZW(1)(a) in respect of a notification of the acquisition on the basis of information that was false or misleading in a material particular; and
(c) the information was material to the Commission making the determination; and
(d) that information was given by:
(i) the person; or
(ii) if the person is a body corporate—a body corporate that was related to the person; and
(e) apart from the determination, putting the acquisition into effect would contravene Subdivision B of Division 1A of Part IV;
then the Court may grant an injunction in such terms as the Court determines to be appropriate.
