Qantas Airways Limited is a person. CASA is a person.
Persons can be sued and prosecuted.

Response posted by Eddie Dean: Are you positive?

Answer by me: Absolutely. Companies and Authorities take on the legal (but not physical) attributes of persons - that of a Corporate Body. (And CASA as an Authority is defined as such, as are all Australian companies also.) Google & Wikipedia will answer your questions. If in doubt though, refer to the relevant Act(s). So the entity can be "sued/ charged/ whatever," however it may still be possible to "sue/ charge/ whatever" certain individuals within.
