Recognised agencies, persons, and classes of persons - Performance of specified functions and activities

112I: Recognised agency or person may act in other capacities

You could also call this:

"People with special jobs can do other work, but must be clear about their role."

If you are a recognised agency or person, you can do other jobs outside of your main tasks. You just cannot do these extra jobs as a recognised agency or person. You must do them in a different role, and not pretend to be acting as a recognised agency or person, as stated in section 112G or 112H.

If you follow these rules, nothing in section 112G or 112H will stop you from doing other jobs. You can work in different areas, as long as you do not use your recognised agency or person title. This means you have to be clear about what role you are in when you are doing these extra jobs.
