14  Advertising conditional discounts
 (1) An electricity retailer must not advertise prices for supplying electricity in a distribution region to small customers if:
 (a) the advertisement mentions a conditional discount in relation to the prices; and
 (b) the advertisement does not meet the requirements of subsections (2) and (3).
Civil penalty: 300 penalty units.
 (2) The conditional discount must not be the price‑related matter that is mentioned most conspicuously in the advertisement.
 (3) The advertisement must state the conditions on the conditional discount clearly and conspicuously.
 (4) To avoid doubt, in determining whether this section does not apply because of section 8 (distribution regions to which this instrument does not apply), have regard to the financial year in which the advertising occurs, rather than the financial year in which the electricity is expected to be supplied.
