Animal Welfare (Fees) Determination 2011 (No 1)
Disallowable Instrument DI2011-118
made under the
Animal Welfare Act 1992, section 110 – Determination of fees

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Section 110 of the Animal Welfare Act 1992 permits the Minister to determine fees for the purposes of the Act.

This determination revokes the previous fee determination (DI 2010–114) that set fees for the 2010-2011 financial year and establishes fees from 1 July 2011.

This determination increases fees in accordance with the Wage Price Index estimate for 2011-12 of 3.5%, consistent with the Government’s announcement, made as part of the 2006-07 ACT Budget, on the indexing of government fees and charges.  The increased fees are rounded down to the nearest 5 cents.

The determination takes effect on 1 July 2011.
