Most every nation's set of rules has the catchall that goes something like
(US FAR 91.3) "In the case of an emergency the pilot in command may
deviate from any rule in the book that saves his worthless ass."

Yeah, same down here, you may be asked to justify your decision - if you
live! More likely you end up having a LLOONNGG chat to the CASA folk about
how you ended up in the position that you needed to break a rule.
