        (2)   However, an activity notice can not be given if an activity
              notice has already been given for the activity or another
              activity that is substantially the same as the activity.
        (3)   An activity notice must state—
              (a)    the mining tenement under which the existing activity is

              (b)    the nature of the activity; and
              (c)    that the activity is not authorised under the conditions of
                     the transitional authority.
        (4)   To remove any doubt, it is declared that this section does not
              limit the application of sections 430 and 431 to the transitional
              authority.

              relevant amendment application means an application to
              amend the transitional authority that, if granted, would allow
              the carrying out of the activity under the authority.
