##### 82 AUSTEL may modify chart or manual as binding on a particular carrier
(1) AUSTEL may declare that the chart of accounts or cost allocation manual that would otherwise be binding on a particular carrier is binding on that carrier with such modifications as the declaration specifies.
(2) AUSTEL may only make a declaration under subsection (1) if it is satisfied that making the declaration is desirable in order to help achieve the objects of this Part.
(3) A declaration under subsection (1):
(a) may be made on AUSTEL’s own initiative or at the request of the carrier concerned; and
(b) must be made by writing given to the carrier.
(4) A declaration under subsection (1) has effect, according to its tenor, from:
(a) if the declaration is made before the day when the chart or manual would, apart from the declaration, become binding on the carrier—that day; or
(b) the day after the carrier receives the declaration; or
(c) the day specified in the declaration as its day of effect;
whichever is later or latest.
