Western Australia Fair Trading Act 2010 96-98: Keep the precautions, diligence and reliance records needed to raise the statutory defences

What does 96-98 require?

In a prosecution for an offence against the Act it is a defence that the contravention was due to a reasonable mistake of fact, including reasonably relying on information that someone who was not the accused's employee, agent or director, supplied, provided notice identifying that person is given to the prosecutor at least seven days before the hearing. It is also a defence that the breach was caused by someone outside the business, by an accident or by some other cause outside the accused's control, where reasonable precautions were in place and due diligence would not have prevented it. A publisher who received an advertisement in the ordinary course of business without reason to suspect a contravention has a separate defence.
