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.
The package allows the Commonwealth to impose charges for administering the new scheme, including developing national standards, enforcing compliance, and supporting consumers.
The bills do not set charge amounts; these will be set in regulations that Parliament can disallow, allowing the minister to consult stakeholders and adjust charges as needed.
