53 Register of bidders
(1) The ACMA must maintain a register of bidders in the auction in electronic form.
(2) For each bidder, the register must contain the following:
(a) the bidder’s name;
(b) the bidder’s postal address;
(c) the bidder’s email address;
(d) the bidder’s telephone number;
(e) the name, position, postal address, email address and telephone number of a contact person for the bidder;
(f) the bidder’s provisional start demands for the lots of each product;
(g) whether the bidder is a set-aside participant;
(h) if the bidder is a set-aside participant – whether the bidder is entitled to bid in the primary stage and the secondary stage;
(i) the bidder’s maximum eligibility points;
(j) the bidder’s provisional minimum spectrum requirements (if any) for the lots of each product, other than the following:
(i) a 900 lower product;
(ii) if the bidder is a set-aside participant – a 900 upper product;
(k) the bidder’s allocation limits applicable to each of the following:
(i) the major population products;
(ii) the regional products;
(l) the bidder’s ABN, ACN or ARBN;
(m) the names of the bidder’s associates and the nature of each associate’s association with the bidder.
(3) The ACMA may also include other information in the register, if the ACMA considers the information necessary or convenient for the auction.
(4) If:
(a) a bidder tells the ACMA of a change in the bidder’s name or contact information, including a change of information for the bidder’s contact person; or
(b) the ACMA becomes aware that any of the information on the register is not correct;
the ACMA must change or correct the register as soon as practicable.
(5) The ACMA must not change the matter in paragraph (2)(g).
Note: Once a set-aside applicant has stated, in its application form, that it elects to take up a set-aside lot of both of the 900 upper major population product and the 900 upper regional product, the applicant becomes a set-aside participant, and that status cannot be changed unless provided for by this instrument. The instrument does not provide for that status to be changed for a person at any time after the ACMA registers the person as a bidder under section 54.
