Disallowable instrument DI 2008–110
made under the
Road Transport (General) Act 1999, s 96 (Determination of fees, charges and other amounts)
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Section 96 of the Road Transport (General) Act 1999 allows for the determining of fees for the purposes of road transport legislation.  This includes fees payable for transactions relating to operator accreditation for taxis, buses, demand responsive services, hire cars and taxi networks and the licensing of taxis and hire cars under the Road Transport (Public Passenger Services) Act 2001.

This instrument revokes the previous relevant fee determination, namely disallowable instrument DI2007-251, as notified on the ACT Government Legislation Register on 29 October 2007 (the former fee determination).

Part 2 of the schedule of this instrument (relating to taxi services) includes a new fee for the issue of a conditional non-transferable taxi licence.  A fee of $10,000 now applies if the vehicle is capable of carrying six (6) or more passengers and is wheelchair accessible.  All other fees remain the same as the former fee determination.
