No. That's inaccurate. It's an old open market law that dates back before my first book. What it says is that if the UK publisher doesn't get a book into Oz within 30 days (I believe it's thirty) then Australian book sellers can import the US edition--Oz becomes an "open market" rather than a British Export Market. This is all legacy stuff from back when the Commonwealth went though it's major changes, you got a new flag, etc.
Ray, would you know if this law cuts both ways with Australia releasing before the UK?
