Queensland Consolidated Acts(1) Subsection (2) applies if--
(a) a customer makes a retail services application for premises to a retail entity who is not the area retail entity for the premises; and
(b) the customer is a small customer for the premises; and
(c) the entity is the financially responsible retail entity for the premises; and
(d) the customer is not an excluded customer for the premises.

Generally, in the absence of a negotiated retail contract, a standard retail contract is taken to exist between the entity and the small customer. See sections 51 and 52.
(3) If, under section 48C(3)(b), an excluded customer for premises makes a retail services application to the financially responsible retail entity for the premises, the entity must provide the customer retail services applied for to the premises.
