any other member of that group, the Commissioner may, by notice in writing
served on that firstmentioned member, exclude that member from that group.
(2) The Commissioner
cannot exercise the power conferred by subsection (1) so as to exclude a

purposes of the Corporations Law , to another corporation which is a member of
that group.

provision of this Part, a notice under subsection (1) has effect
according to its tenor on and from the date specified in the notice (being a
date that is the date of the notice or before the date of the notice) as the
