Recklessly Making a False or Misleading Statement in an Application is an offence under Section 136.1(4) of the Criminal Code Act 1995 (Cth) which carries a maximum penalty of 6 months in prison.
To establish the offence, the prosecution must prove beyond reasonable doubt that:
The statement must be false or misleading, or the omission misleading, ‘in a material particular’ but if the prosecution proves any degree of false or misleading statement or omission you must then establish this was not misleading ‘in a material particular’ in order to disprove that part of the offence.
