Regional petrol tax

200K: Tax recoverable as a debt

You could also call this:

"Unpaid petrol tax is treated like a debt that must be paid back"

Illustration for Local Government Act 1974

The tax you owe for regional petrol is like a debt that you have to pay. If you do not pay this debt, it can be recovered from you. This rule was part of the Local Government Act 1974, but it was repealed on 1 February 1996 by section 4(1) of the Local Government Amendment Act (No 2) 1995.
