For the purposes of this Act a partnership is to be treated as owing whatever duties of care it would owe if it were a body corporate.

Proceedings for an offence under this Act alleged to have been committed by a partnership are to be brought in the name of the partnership (and not in that of any of its members).

A fine imposed on a partnership on its conviction of an offence under this Act is to be paid out of the funds of the partnership.

This section does not apply to a partnership that is a legal person under the law by which it is governed.
