1 or more of the premiums under the primary contracts—
are conditional on 1 or more other contracts of insurance (the secondary contracts ) being effected; or
are part of an arrangement that applies only if 1 or more other contracts of insurance (also the secondary contracts ) are effected; and
1 or more of the premiums under the primary contracts attract insurance duty at a different rate to 1 or more of the premiums under the secondary contracts; and
