 (b) has also consulted any other person or body as required by regulations made for the purposes of this paragraph.
Note: In some situations, consultation is not required (see section 908CN).
 (2) Without limiting the ways in which ASIC may comply with the obligation in paragraph (1)(a) to consult the public about a proposed rule, ASIC is taken to comply with that obligation if ASIC, on its website:
 (a) makes the proposed rule, or a description of the content of the proposed rule, available; and
 (b) invites the public to comment on the proposed rule.
 (3) A failure to consult as required by subsection (1) does not invalidate a rule.
