Subject: Third line forcing notification N99051 lodged by City Of Salisbury [DLM=For-Official-Use-Only]

Security Classification: For Official Use Only

Dear Ms Scharnberg

I refer to the third line forcing notification lodged with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (the ACCC) by City of Salisbury on 12 April 2016. It has been allocated the registration number N99051. The notification and this email will be placed on the ACCC’s public register which is available on the ACCC’s website.

The protection from legal action provided by the notification commences automatically 14 days after the lodgement date, unless the ACCC objects.

On the basis of the information that you have provided, and that the parties will disclose all relevant terms and conditions to customers, the ACCC does not object to the notification at this time.

I note you provided building plans at Annexure A to the Form G. This additional material is not necessary for the ACCC’s assessment of house and land package notifications and has not been placed on the public register.  In addition, the correct lodgement fee for third line forcing notifications is $100 per notifying party.  The ACCC will arrange for you to receive a refund of the overpaid amount.

If at any time circumstances change, or the ACCC receives further information, such that it is satisfied that the public benefits from the third line forcing conduct do not outweigh the public detriments, the ACCC may remove the protection provided by the notification.

Please contact Jaime Martin on 03 9290 1477 or by email to adjudication@accc.gov.au if you have any questions about this matter.
