9  Section 314AKA (after the paragraph beginning "An authorised officer's")
Insert:

      Subdivision C deals with anti‑avoidance. A person commits an offence or is liable to a civil penalty if the person, either alone or with one or more other persons or entities, enters into a scheme, begins to carry out a scheme or carries out a scheme with the sole or dominant purpose of avoiding the application of certain sections of the Act to the person or another person or entity. A person commits an offence or is liable to a civil penalty if the person enters into, begins to carry out or carries out such a scheme in contravention of a notice given by the Electoral Commissioner that requires the person not to do so.
      The Electoral Commissioner's decision to give such a notice to a person is subject to internal review.
