Miscellaneous provisions

99A: Regulations relating to information disclosure

You could also call this:

"Rules about how air traffic services must share information about their prices and costs"

The Governor-General can make rules about sharing information for air traffic services. These rules can say that people who run air traffic services must tell everyone about their prices, how they set prices, and how much things cost. They might also have to share financial statements that show how their business is doing.

The rules can say exactly how this information should be shared and when it needs to be made public. They can also say who needs to make a special promise (called a statutory declaration) that the information is true.

These rules are called 'secondary legislation'. This means they are made under the power of another law and have to follow certain rules about how they are published.
