Australian Capital Territory
Animal Welfare (Fees) Determination 2007 (No 1)
Disallowable Instrument DI 2007 — 138
made under the
Animal Welfare Act 1992, Section 110 - Determination of Fees

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Section 110 of the Animal Welfare Act 1992 provides the Minister with the power to determine fees for the purposes of the Act.

This determination revokes the previous fee determination (DI 2006—168) that set fees for the 2006-2007 financial year and establishes fees from 1 July 2007.

The determination increases the fees payable under the Act by the current wage price index for Canberra issued by the Australian Bureau of Statistics from 1 July 2007 (4.0%), consistent with the Government’s announcement on indexing of fees and charges as part of the 2006-07 ACT Budget.  The increases are rounded down to the nearest 5 cents.

The new fee determination takes effect on from 1 July 2007.
