Telecommunications service obligations - TSO instruments

74: Compliance with TSO instrument

You could also call this:

"TSO providers must follow the rules in a special document called a TSO instrument."

Illustration for Telecommunications Act 2001

If you are a TSO provider, you must follow the rules of a TSO instrument. You have to do what the instrument says. This rule does not change any other rights or duties you may have because of a TSO instrument.

You still have the same rights and duties as you did before, and this law does not affect them. The law is talking about a TSO instrument, which is a special document that says what you must do. You can find more information about changes to this law in the Telecommunications (TSO, Broadband, and Other Matters) Amendment Act 2011.
