  (ii)   managing credit that is the subject of a securitisation arrangement; and

  (b)   the securitisation entity performs a task that is reasonably necessary for:

  (ii)   undertaking credit enhancement in relation to credit; and

  (c)   the credit has been provided by, or is credit for which an application has been made to, a credit provider (the original credit provider );

then, while the securitisation entity performs such a task, the securitisation entity is a credit provider .

  (2)   Subsection   (1) does not apply if the original credit provider is an organisation or small business operator that is a credit provider because of a previous application of that subsection.
