Road Transport (General) Traffic Offence Detection Device Image Fee Revocation 2010 
Disallowable instrument DI2010–80
made under the  
Road Transport (General) Act 1999, section 96 (Determination of fees, charges and other amounts)
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Section 96 of the Road Transport (General) Act 1999 allows the Minister to determine fees, charges and other amounts payable under the ACT road transport legislation.

Under sub-section 27(2) of the Road Transport (Safety and Traffic Management) Act 1999 the road transport authority must provide, on request, a copy of an image taken by a traffic offence detection device to the responsible person for the vehicle shown in the image.  

The revocation of the instrument will remove an unused statutory instrument from the Legislation Register.  In practice, the fee for viewing an image of a camera-detected traffic offence is not charged, as it considered inappropriate to require a person to pay a fee to view evidence of the offence the person has allegedly committed. 

This determination is a disallowable instrument and must be presented to the Legislative Assembly within 6 sitting days after its notification pursuant to section 64 of the Legislation Act 2001.
