23  After subsection 494B(1)
Insert:

 (1A) If a person is a minor, the Minister may use the methods mentioned in subsections (4) and (5) to dispatch or transmit, as the case may be, a document to an individual (a carer of the minor):
 (a) who is at least 18 years of age; and
 (b) who the Minister reasonably believes:
 (i) has day‑to‑day care and responsibility for the minor; or
 (ii) works in or for an organisation that has day‑to‑day care and responsibility for the minor and whose duties, whether alone or jointly with another person, involve care and responsibility for the minor.

Note: If the Minister gives an individual a document by the method mentioned in subsection (4) or (5), the individual is taken to have received the document at the time specified in section 494C in respect of that method.

 (1B) However, subsection (1A) does not apply if subsection 52(3C) (which relates to giving notifications in the case of combined applications) applies in relation to the minor.
