Jan - the AGD is not involved in this one.  Its a private matter, with these
provisions being obliquely referred to in a letter from a law firm representing 
a
private Australian company.
The lawyers appear to think they can cite this law to block a website using an
Australian firm's logo without permission.
No government involvement - I'm hoping this private Australian company aren't 
paying a
great deal for their legal advisors.
Nothing to see here.
