##### 193 AUSTEL may disallow variation that is contrary to section 192 (1) Where: (a) a carrier gives to AUSTEL a document that purports to be a variation of a BCS tariff of the carrier; and (b) in AUSTEL’s opinion, the proposed variation would contravene section 192; AUSTEL may, within 2 business days after receiving the document, give the carrier a written notice: (c) stating that AUSTEL is disallowing the variation because it would contravene section 192; and (d) setting out why AUSTEL thinks that the variation would contravene section 192. (2) Despite subsection 192(3), a variation that has been disallowed under this section is of no effect. > Note: Section 238A confers on AUSTEL a further power to disallow tariffs as anti-competitive.
