172A: Regulations relating to fees and charges for appointment as self-containment certification authority

You could also call this:

"Rules about fees for becoming a self-containment certification authority"

Illustration for Plumbers, Gasfitters, and Drainlayers Act 2006

The Governor-General can make rules about fees and charges for people who want to be appointed as a self-containment certification authority. You will have to pay fees and charges to the Board when you apply to be appointed. The rules can say how much you have to pay or how the fees and charges are calculated. The Board can refund or waive fees and charges if the rules say they can. You have to pay any fees, charges, or costs to the Board, and they can take you to court to get the money if you do not pay. The rules made under this section are called secondary legislation, which means they have to follow certain publication requirements, as outlined in Part 3 of the Legislation Act 2019. If the rules say the Board can give refunds or waivers, they have to follow certain rules, and the regulations must say so, unless the refund or waiver only applies to one or more named persons, as explained in Part 3 of the Legislation Act 2019.
