AUSTEL may direct carrier to remedy breach of licence condition
343. (1) This section applies where, as a result of an investigation under
section 335, AUSTEL is satisfied that a carrier has contravened a condition of
a general telecommunications licence or public mobile licence held by the
carrier.

act required by the condition, AUSTEL may direct the carrier in writing to do
that act.
(3) If AUSTEL is satisfied that the contravention consists of engaging in
conduct prohibited by the condition, AUSTEL may direct the carrier in writing
to stop engaging in that conduct, or not to engage in it again, or both, as
the case requires.
(4) AUSTEL may give a direction under subsection (3) whether or not it appears
that the carrier intends to continue to engage in that conduct or to engage in
it again.
