If someone is taking a body corporate to court for breaking a rule in the Fisheries Act 1996, they need to show what the body corporate was thinking. You can do this by showing that one of its directors, employees, or agents was thinking that way. This person must have been acting within their job or role when they had that thought.

If, in the course of any proceedings against a body corporate for an offence against this Act, it is necessary to establish the state of mind of the body corporate, it is sufficient to show that a director, employee, or agent of the body corporate, acting within the scope of that person's actual or apparent authority, had that state of mind.
