Consumer, Trader and Tenancy Tribunal Amendment (Fees) Regulation 2004 (NSW)

2004 No 411

New South Wales

Consumer, Trader and Tenancy

Tribunal Amendment (Fees)

Regulation 2004

under the

Consumer, Trader and Tenancy Tribunal Act 2001

Her Excellency the Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, has made the following Regulation under the Consumer, Trader and Tenancy Tribunal Act 2001.

REBA PAIGE MEAGHER, M.P.,

Minister for Fair Trading

Explanatory note
The object of this Regulation is to increase fees payable:

(a)	in respect of applications to have matters dealt with by the Consumer, Trader and Tenancy Tribunal, and
(b)	for the issue of a summons.

The fee increases are in line with movements in the Consumer Price Index.

This Regulation also:

(a)	introduces a new “at cost” fee for a copy of a written record or transcript of evidence or proceedings, and
(b)	removes the fee of $21 for the cost of a sound or audio-visual recording. (The Tribunal will now provide cassettes of such tape recordings of evidence or proceedings “at cost” rather than at a set fee.)

The “at cost” fees provide consistency in the method of charging fees for these services across all Divisions of the Tribunal and replace the existing fee variations for these items between the Divisions.

This Regulation is made under the Consumer, Trader and Tenancy Tribunal Act 2001, including section 86 (the general regulation-making power) and, in particular, section 86 (2) (n).
