100ZH  Application to partnerships
 (1) This Part, and the Water Markets Intermediaries Code, apply to a partnership as if the partnership were a person. However, obligations that would be imposed on the partnership are imposed instead on each partner, but may be discharged by any of the partners.
 (2) If, apart from this subsection, a partnership would contravene a civil penalty provision, the contravention is taken to have been committed by each partner.
 (3) A partner does not contravene a civil penalty provision because of subsection (2), if the partner:
 (a) does not know of the circumstances that constitute the contravention of the provision concerned; or
 (b) knows of those circumstances but takes all reasonable steps to correct the contravention as soon as possible after the partner becomes aware of those circumstances.
Note: A defendant bears an evidential burden in relation to the matters in this subsection: see section 154E.
