I would not read that as obligation on QF's part to provide support under the regulation.. only that *if* they perform obligations under the regulation that they are doing so on behalf of the person having the contract

The paragraph starts with

This Regulation shall apply to any operating air carrier providing transport to passengers covered by paragraphs 1 and 2.

to which QF flying to UK is not covered and then goes on to say that if they do perform obligations it is on behalf of the contract holder. I don't see it stating that the regulation extends onto QF in this case
