16  Automatic transitional TEQSA registration while TEQSA considers pending application for re‑registration
(1) If the application mentioned in paragraph 14(a) was for re‑registration, the provider is taken to be a registered higher education provider for the purposes of the TEQSA Act.
Note: This automatic registration means, for example, that the provider must comply with conditions imposed from time to time on the registration (see section 24 of that Act).
(2) The provider's registration is for the period:
 (a) starting at the transition time; and
 (b) ending when TEQSA notifies the provider, under section 22 of the TEQSA Act, of TEQSA's decision to grant or reject the application.
(3) TEQSA must give the provider written notice of the following matters within 30 days after being notified of the application under paragraph 14(c):
 (a) the provider category in which the provider is registered;
 (b) whether the provider may self‑accredit one or more courses of study.
(4) Paragraph (2)(b) has effect subject to Division 1 of Part 7 (about cancelling registration and other administrative sanctions).
(5) Division 3 of Part 3 of the TEQSA Act does not apply to a registration that exists because of this item.
Note: The provider cannot apply under the TEQSA Act to have this transitional registration renewed.
(6) This item applies to the registration instead of sections 22 and 23 of the TEQSA Act.
