ob体育 may accept a court enforceable undertaking to improve and enforce compliance with the law. Court enforceable undertakings are not always used as an alternative to other enforcement action, they can also be used to complement or enhance such actions.聽

ob体育 will not usually accept a court enforceable undertaking:聽

  • instead of pursuing criminal court proceedings,
  • where the misconduct is deliberate or involves a high level of recklessness, or
  • after a matter has been referred to an ob体育 delegate or another specialist body.

ob体育 generally requires that a court enforceable undertaking contains admissions that the party providing the undertaking contravened legislative provisions. If the party does not comply with the undertakings, ob体育 will seek to enforce the undertaking through the court.聽
