245AYN Former prohibited employers to give certain information
          (1) This section applies if:
               (a) a person was a prohibited employer for a particular period
                    (the prohibition period); and
               (b) the person allows a non-citizen to begin work on a particular
                    day (the start day) during the 12-month period starting on the
                    day after the prohibition period ends; and
               (c) the non-citizen is a lawful non-citizen (other than the holder
                    of a permanent visa).
          (2) The person must, before the end of the 28-day period starting on
              the start day, give the Department a written notice that:
                (a) sets out the name of the non-citizen; and
                (b) specifies the kind of visa held by the non-citizen; and
                (c) specifies the work to be done by the non-citizen; and
                (d) if the non-citizen holds a visa that is subject to one or more
                    work-related conditions:
                      (i) sets out each of those conditions; and
                     (ii) states that the non-citizen will not be in breach of those
                          conditions solely because of doing that work; and
                (e) sets out any other prescribed information.
          (3) A person is liable to a civil penalty if the person contravenes
              subsection (2).
               Note:      It is not necessary to prove a person’s state of mind in proceedings for
                          a civil penalty order (see section 486ZF).

               Civil penalty:           48 penalty units.
          (4) Before the Governor-General makes a regulation for the purposes
              of paragraph (2)(e) prescribing information that is personal
              information about an individual, the Minister must be satisfied that








               the information is reasonably necessary for monitoring compliance
               with Subdivisions C, E or F of this Division.
