Road Transport (General) (Vehicle Registration and Related Fees) Determination 2006 (No 1) 
Disallowable instrument DI2006–128
made under the  
Road Transport (General) Act 1999, Section 96 (Determination of fees, charges and other amounts)
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Section 96 of the Road Transport (General) Act 1999 authorises for the Minister to determine fees, charges and other amounts payable under the ACT road transport legislation.

This instrument has the effect of determining fees, payable in advance, for vehicle registration and related transactions carried out under the road transport legislation. 

Most vehicle registration fees have been aligned with corresponding NSW fees for equivalent vehicle categories, which has resulted in an average increase of 2.9%.  Other related administrative fees have increased by CPI (2.5%), rounded down to the nearest whole dollar for amounts over $100 and the nearest multiple of 50c for most amounts below $100.

There has been no increase in the Road Rescue Fee, the Short-term registration fee or the late transfer fee.

This determination is a disallowable instrument and must be presented to the Legislative Assembly within 6 sitting days after its notification pursuant to section 64 of the Legislation Act 2001.
