         section 133A
          (1) Subject to subsection (2), the possible non-compliances that can
              constitute a ground for the cancellation of a visa under
              subsection 133A(1) or (3) include non-compliances that occurred
              at any time (whether before or after the commencement of this

              held by the person.
          (2) Section 115 (application of Subdivision C) applies in relation to
              section 133A in the same way that it applies in relation to
              Subdivision C.
          (3) To avoid doubt, subsections 133A(1) and (3) apply:
               (a) whether or not the Minister became aware of the ground for
                   cancelling the visa because of information given by the visa
                   holder; and








                 (b) whether the non-compliance because of which the ground is
                     considered to exist was deliberate or inadvertent.
          (4) Steps taken for the purposes of the Minister exercising the power
              in subsection 133A(1) or (3) in relation to an instance of possible
              non-compliance by a person do not prevent:
                (a) a notice under section 107 being given to that person because
                    of another instance of possible non-compliance; or
                (b) the exercise of the power in subsection 133A(1) or (3) in
                    relation to the person because of another instance of possible
                    non-compliance.
          (5) The non-cancellation of a visa under section 133A despite an
              instance of non-compliance does not prevent the cancellation, or
              steps for the cancellation, of the visa because of another instance of
              non-compliance.
