50  Simplified outline of this Part

      This Part deals with the procedures to be undertaken in conducting an auction.
      The ACMA must register eligible applicants as bidders in the auction.  The ACMA must also set the commencement of the auction, and give this information to bidders.
      The auction is to be conducted in accordance with the rules in Schedule 1.  Bidding is to occur by the auction system made available by the ACMA.  However, the auction manager may permit bids to be made by other methods in particular circumstances, and may also allow bids to be made outside of rounds in particular circumstances.  The auction manager may also restart, cancel, or take other specified action in relation to, the auction in exceptional circumstances.
      During the auction, bidders must not be affiliated with each other, and must report any affiliations with each other, or with a previous successful bidder, to the ACMA.
