You could also call this:

“Rules for immigration advisers can be made by the Governor-General”

The Governor-General can make rules about immigration advisers. These rules can cover many things. They can say what information needs to be in the register of licensed immigration advisers. They can also say what information people need to include when they apply for a licence.

The rules can say who doesn’t need a licence, or change who doesn’t need one. They can also say how licences get renewed. The rules can explain what important changes advisers need to tell the government about.

The Governor-General can make rules about fees for licences. This includes how much it costs to apply for a licence, get a licence, or renew a licence. They can also make rules about other fees related to licences.

The rules can say how much licensed immigration advisers have to pay in levies. They might have to pay these to get or renew their licence. The Governor-General can also make rules about how the Immigration Advisers Complaints and Disciplinary Tribunal works.

Lastly, the Governor-General can make any other rules needed to make sure this law works properly. These rules are called secondary legislation, which means they are published in a special way.
