126  Industry standards not to be determined for certain privacy matters
  The ACMA must not determine an industry standard if:
 (a) the standard would deal with a matter referred to in paragraph 113(3)(f) (which relates to privacy); and
 (b) compliance with the standard would be likely to have the effect (whether direct or indirect) of requiring customer equipment, customer cabling, a telecommunications network or a facility:
 (i) to have particular design features; or
 (ii) to meet particular performance requirements.
However, this rule does not apply if the ACMA is satisfied that the benefits to the community from the operation of the standard would outweigh the costs of compliance with the standard.
