38 Improper creation of certificates—offences
(1) A person who is not entitled under this Act to create a certificate must not create a certificate.
- 60 penalty units in the case of an individual;
240 penalty units in the case of a body corporate.
(2) In determining whether a person was not entitled to create a certificate under this Act, the fact that the certificate has been registered by the ESC under section 41 is to be disregarded.
This ensures that a person cannot raise as relevant evidence the fact that a certificate has been registered.
