you are assuming that data.gov.au received the data from the states on the same terms as everybody else, that really doesn't have to be so.
What makes you think I'm assuming anything? To publish data on data.gov.au an organization has to register (https://toolkit.data.gov.au/index.php?title=Starting_on_datagovau#Getting_an_Account) and provide the following waiver:
"On behalf of the <entity name>, I request a data publishing account on data.gov.au. <entity name> will be responsible for the management of this account and the data that is published using it. <entity name> will notify the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (DPMC) to any changes in ownership of the account and of any issues if they arise. The responsibility of publishing data appropriately, in accordance with privacy, security and other relevant considerations rests entirely with the data publisher and DPMC take no responsibility."
Not sure what part of that you think transfers any rights from the holder to DPMC.
