Veterinary Surgeons (Fees) Determination 2015 (No 1)
Disallowable instrument DI2015 – 302
made under the
Veterinary Surgeons Act 2015, s 136 (Determination of fees by board)
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Section 136 (1) of the Veterinary Surgeons Act 2015 (the Act) permits the ACT Veterinary Surgeons Board to determine fees for the Act.

This determination reaffirms the existing fees applying to veterinary surgeons in the ACT, previously made under the Health Professionals Act 2004.  This is necessary due to the enactment of the Veterinary Surgeons Act and subsequent repeal of the Health Professionals Act, which also repeals the fees made under the latter Act.

The determination also removes fees from the Health Professionals (Fees) Determination 2015 (No 1) that were no longer being used.

The determination commences on the commencement day of the Act.
