Qantas Sale Act?

Any bush lawyers understand how Jetstar is able to operate internationally and not breach the sale act?
QANTAS SALE ACT 1992 No. 196, 1992 - SECT 7 Qantas' articles of association to include certain provisions
7.(1) The articles of association of Qantas ....snip......
(e) prohibit Qantas from taking any action to bring about a change of its
company name to a name that does not include the expression "Qantas"; and
(f) prohibit Qantas from conducting scheduled international air transport
passenger services under a name other than:
(i) its company name; or
(ii) a registered business name that includes the expression "Qantas";
I know they have recently added the tag "A Qantas Group Airline" but I don't believe this is part of their registered buisness name.
If the situation is in breach of the sales act then who would be responsible and what action should follow?
