Part 3 Registration

3.1 Arrangements for registration

    (1) The ACMA has made the arrangements in Schedule 1 for the operation of a system for the registration of cabling providers (the registration system).

    (2) The registration system makes provision in relation to the following matters:

         (a) the specification of competency requirements with which a cabling provider must have evidence of their compliance before being eligible for registration or renewal of registration;

         (b) the registration, by a registrar, of cabling providers who comply with the requirements mentioned in paragraph (a);

         (c) requirements for the conduct of the registrars;

         (d) conditions to which registration may be subject;

         (e) circumstances in which registration may be suspended, revoked or renewed;

         (f) arrangements for the auditing of cabling work;

         (g) arrangements for the auditing of registration documents;

         (h) arrangements, consistent with the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles, for the protection of information given to a registrar.

    (3) For paragraph (2)(a), a cabling provider is taken to comply with the competency requirements if the cabling provider gives to a registrar:

         (a) a copy of a current registration as a cabling provider that was issued by a registrar; or

    (b) both of the following:

         (i) an application for renewal of registration as a cabling provider;

              (ii) a copy of the cabling provider's registration that expired during a period that is not greater than 12 months before the application for renewal is given to the registrar; or

         (c) written certification from a registered training organisation that the cabling provider has completed a training course that complies with the competency requirements; or

         (d) written advice from the ACMA stating that, for a reason mentioned in the advice, the cabling provider may use an expired registration.

    Note Upon registration, a provider will receive proof of registration from a registrar. The precise form of the proof of registration is a matter for the particular registrar, but it will usually be a registration card, and in some cases a written certificate.

    (4) The ACMA:

         (a) may operate the registration system itself;

    (b) may engage 1 or more persons to:

         (i) operate the registration system;

         (ii) operate the registration system and act as a registrar; or

         (iii) act as registrars; and

(c) is not required to act as a registrar.

    (5) The ACMA must not engage a person to operate the registration system or act as a registrar unless the ACMA has accredited the person in accordance with the accreditation procedures specified in Schedule 5

    (6) A cabling provider who is registered under the registration system and whose registration has not been suspended or revoked is a registered cabling
