Australian Capital Territory
Waste Minimisation (Landfill Fees) Determination 2012 (No 1)
Disallowable Instrument DI2012—69
made under the
Waste Minimisation Act 2001, section 45 (Determination of fees)

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Section 45 of the Waste Minimisation Act 2001 (the Act) allows for the responsible Minister to determine waste fees for the ACT.

This determination revokes the previous fee determination (DI2011–122) that set fees for the 2011-2012 financial year, and establishes new fees from 15 May 2012.

This determination takes effect on 15 May 2012 to reflect the changes required for the free acceptance for recycling of televisions, computers and peripheral devices from households and small businesses.

An updated determination to apply from 1 July 2012 addressing other changes to the fees schedule under the Act is currently being developed for approval at a later stage.
