Commonwealth Consolidated Acts Commonwealth Consolidated Acts(1) If a registered provider for a course enters into an arrangement with one or more other providers to provide the course jointly, the arrangement must:
(a) be such that the students pay their course money to the registered provider and not directly to the other providers; or
(b) both:
(i) be in writing; and
(ii) provide for the receipt and disbursement of any course money paid by students directly to any of the other providers.
(1A) However, for the purpose of determining the registered provider's obligations under this Act, any course money paid by students directly to any of the other providers is taken to have been paid directly to the registered provider.
(2) A registered provider does not breach its obligations under this Act or any other Act relating to education by charging overseas students, or intending overseas students, an amount as part of the student's tuition fee, if the amount is for any action the provider is required to undertake because of this Act or the national code.
Note: The Minister may take action under Division 1 of Part 6 against a registered provider that has breached this section.
