##### 151 Deregistration of agreements
(1) AUSTEL must deregister an access agreement if the parties to it request AUSTEL in writing to deregister the agreement.
(2) AUSTEL may deregister an access agreement if:
(a) in the case of a determination made under section 154 because of an arbitration—a party to the arbitration gave to AUSTEL, for the purposes of the arbitration; or
(b) in any case—a party to the agreement gave to AUSTEL, in connection with the application to register the agreement;
information that was false or misleading in a material particular.
(3) AUSTEL may deregister an access agreement if it is satisfied that:
(a) there has been a material change in circumstances since the agreement was registered; and
(b) that change is such that AUSTEL would now be entitled to refuse under subsection 146(3) an application for registration of the agreement if it were not already registered.
(4) Deregistration of an access agreement consists of removing from the register the copy of the whole, or each copy of a part, as the case requires, of the agreement.
