Graffiti Control Amendment Regulation

2010

under the

Graffiti Control Act 2008

His Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, has made the following Regulation under the Graffiti Control Act 2008.

JOHN HATZISTERGOS, MLC

Attorney General

Explanatory note
The object of this Regulation is to make it clear that the power to make a community clean up order in respect of a fine imposed by a court on a graffiti offender extends to all amounts imposed by the court that are recoverable as a fine under the Fines Act 1996. This will enable a graffiti offender to satisfy, by the performance of community clean up work, not only the monetary penalty imposed by the court for a graffiti offence but any additional amounts payable in respect of the offence (such as court fees or a compensation levy) that are recoverable as a fine.
This Regulation is made under the Graffiti Control Act 2008, including sections 9R and 19

(the general regulation-making power).
