92Employees and agents

92 Employees and agents (1) Any act done or practice engaged in on behalf of an organisation by an employee or agent of the organisation acting within the scope of his or her actual or apparent authority is to be taken, for the purposes of this Act including a prosecution for an offence against this Act, to have been done or engaged in by the organisation and not by the employee or agent unless the organisation establishes that it took reasonable precautions and exercised due diligence to avoid the act being done or the practice being engaged in by its employee or agent. (2) If, for the purpose of investigating a complaint or a proceeding for an offence against this Act, it is necessary to establish the state of mind of an organisation in relation to a particular act or practice, it is sufficient to show— (a) that the act was done or practice engaged in by an employee or agent of the organisation acting within the scope of his or her actual or apparent authority; and (b) that the employee or agent had that state of mind.
