153: Section 2 amended (Interpretation)

You could also call this:

“Changes are made to explain new words about fines in a law”

The Summary Proceedings Act 1957 is being changed. The change is to the part of the Act that explains what different words mean. They are adding a new type of infringement notice to the list. This new type comes from section 63 of the Customer and Product Data Act 2025. An infringement notice is a kind of official warning or fine that you might get if you break certain rules.
