Australian Capital Territory
Road Transport (General) (Driver Licence and Related Fees) Determination 2008 (No 1)
Disallowable instrument DI2008–105
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 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 driver licence and related transactions under the road transport legislation. 

The fee for a full five-year licence is aligned with the corresponding fee charged in NSW and has increased by 3.6%, rounded down to the nearest five cents.  The fee for an ACT three-year provisional driver licence is three fifths of the fee for a five-year licence.  The ACT learner licence is issued under different arrangements and for a different period than the NSW learner licence and the fee is therefore not aligned with NSW.  

All other fees have increased by 3.6%, rounded down to the nearest five cents.  

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.
