The rule says:

a. In the vicinity of an aerodrome depicted on aeronautical charts,
with a discrete frequency, the discrete CTAF shown (including
Broadcast Area CTAF), or otherwise;
b. In the vicinity of an aerodrome depicted on aeronautical charts,
with no discrete frequency shown, the CTAF 126.7; or
c. In all other cases, Area VHF.

I don't see how that answers my question. Can you perhaps elaborate?

I don't see any definition of aeronautical chart. My working definition is charts in AIP, i.e. WAC, ERC, VNC, VTC. You seem to prefer "approved for the purposes of CAR 233(1)(h)." I have no idea what else is included for the purposes of CAR 233(1)(h). OzRunways claims to be, does that mean pilots MUST have access to OzRunways to check whether an airstrip is depicted in OzRunways, in order to know the correct frequency?

I am also interested in the answer to
which published charts are you referencing?
Your description
charts published by a publisher approved for the purposes of CAR 233(1)(h)
is a bit cryptic and goes to my point that this rule requires that everybody use consistent charts, and if you won't tell us which charts you are using there is a problem with the rule.
