359: Licensed market operator must give notice and have regard to submissions on continuous disclosure determinations

You could also call this:

"Market operators must tell people about changes to company information rules and listen to feedback"

Illustration for Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013

When a licensed market operator makes a decision about what information companies must tell the public, you need to know it follows certain rules. The decision must be about important information that is not already public. If the decision changes what companies must disclose, the licensed market operator must tell the Financial Markets Authority at least two trading days before making the decision, including what the decision will be and why they are making it.

The licensed market operator must consider any comments the Financial Markets Authority makes within those two trading days. After making the decision, the licensed market operator must tell the Financial Markets Authority what the decision is and why they made it.

If the licensed market operator does not follow these rules, or the rules in section 360, it does not change the decision they made.
