You could also call this:

"Rules made by the Governor-General to help the Civil Aviation Act 2023 work properly"

The Governor-General can make rules for the Civil Aviation Act 2023. You need to know what these rules can be about. They can be about things like fees you have to pay, what happens if you break the rules, and what information you have to give when you apply for something. The rules can also say what offences are against the Act and what the maximum fine can be. For example, if you are an individual, the fine cannot be more than $10,000, and if you are a company, it cannot be more than $50,000. The Governor-General can make these rules on the recommendation of the Minister. If you want to know more about how these rules are published, you can look at Part 3 of the Legislation Act 2019.
