Plain-language summary
Written by a model from the explanatory memorandum; not the record, as at 2018-02-07.
This bill is part of a package that replaces the Motor Vehicle Standards Act 1989 with the Road Vehicle Standards Bill 2018 as the main law for regulating road vehicle imports and supply.
It allows the Commonwealth to impose cost-recovery charges on activities related to administering the Road Vehicle Standards Bill, specifically where those charges are a duty of customs under section 55 of the Constitution.
The bill does not set the charge amounts; these will be set in regulations that Parliament can disallow, allowing the relevant minister to consult stakeholders and make timely adjustments.
