51K Exception—classification

A does not commit a child abuse material offence (other than an offence against section 51I(1)) in respect of material that, at the time at which the offence is alleged to have been committed, was classified other than RC or would, if classified, have been classified other than RC.

1 The reference to A in this section is a reference to the same A referred to in the child abuse material offence provisions.
