95ZB  Applicable period in relation to a locality notice
 (1) The applicable period in relation to a locality notice is the period (the price‑freeze period) of 21 days starting on the day on which the notice was given.
 (2) However, the Commission may, with the consent of the person who gave the locality notice, determine, before the end of the price‑freeze period, that the applicable period in relation to the notice for the purposes of this section is a specified longer period.
 (3) If the Commission so determines, that longer period is taken to become the applicable period in relation to the locality notice.
 (4) Also, if the Commission has given a response notice, the period that is the applicable period (worked out under subsections (1) to (3)) in relation to the locality notice is taken to be increased by a period of 14 days.
Example: On 1 May the person gives the Commission a locality notice.
 Under subsection (1), the applicable period ends on 21 May.
 On 9 May the Commission, with the consent of the person, determines, under subsection (2), that the applicable period ends on 31 May.
 If the Commission also gives the person a response notice, under subsection (4), the applicable period instead of ending on 31 May ends on 14 June.
