12   Transferring an authorisation to self-accredit courses of study

(1) A registered higher education provider’s registration arising under Division 1 includes the authority to self-accredit one or more courses of study if, immediately before the transition time, the provider’s corresponding registration under a State or Territory law relating to higher education included a similar authority.

(2) A registered higher education provider’s registration arising under Division 2 includes the authority to self-accredit one or more courses of study if the State review decision (as described in paragraph 4(1)(b)) would (ignoring the enactment of the TEQSA Act) have resulted in the provider being authorised to self-accredit those courses of study.

(3) Nothing in this item prevents an authorisation to self-accredit one or more courses of study from being restricted or removed under the TEQSA Act.
