19 State/Territory register provisions may apply

(1) Section 18 does not apply in relation to a relevant authorisation for a major sporting event if: (a) the Schedule to this Act that covers the event specifies, or the rules prescribe in relation to the event, a provision of a law of a State or Territory that establishes a register (the State/Territory register) relating to authorisations to use expressions or images in relation to the event; and (b) the State/Territory register contains information about the relevant authorisation. (2) Before making rules for the purposes of paragraph (1)(a) in relation to a major sporting event, the Minister must be satisfied that: (a) substantially the same details in relation to authorisations to use expressions or images in relation to the event are required to be included in the State/Territory register as would otherwise be required to be included under subsections 18(2) and (3) of this Act; and (b) the State/Territory register is required to be published on the internet.
