(2)  Subsection (1) shall not apply to the doing of anything that can only be done by a public accountant as a natural person.
(3)  A public accountant who provides public accountancy services as a director or an employee of an accounting corporation shall be subject to the same standards of professional conduct and competence in respect of such services as if he were personally providing the public accountancy services as a public accountant in an accounting firm.
