(1) A person who is or is reasonably likely to be affected by a scheme
published as referred to in section 13 (including a person who is or is
reasonably likely to be affected by a scheme that operates as a scheme of
another jurisdiction) may apply to the Supreme Court for an order that the
scheme is void for want of compliance with this Act.
(2) The Court may, on
the making of the application or at any time before the scheme commences,
order that the commencement of the scheme is stayed until further order of the
Court.
(3) The Court, in relation to an application, may:
(a) make an order
that a scheme is void for want of compliance with this Act, or
(b) decline to
make such an order, or
(c) give directions as to the things that are required
to be done in order that a scheme, the commencement of which is stayed under
this section, may commence, or
(d) make any other order it thinks fit.
(4)
The Court may not make an order that an interstate scheme is void for want of
compliance with this Act on the ground that the scheme fails to comply with
Division 2, but may do so on the ground that the scheme fails to comply with
the provisions of the corresponding law of the jurisdiction in which it was
prepared that relate to the contents of schemes prepared in that jurisdiction.
(5) This section does not prevent a scheme from being challenged or called
into question otherwise than under this section.
(6) In this section, a
reference to a scheme includes, in the case of an interstate scheme, a
reference to an instrument amending that scheme.
