Fee Exemption) Regulation 2004

under the

Liquor Act 1982

Her Excellency the Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, has made the following Regulation under the Liquor Act 1982.

GRANT McBRIDE, M.P.,

Minister for Gaming and Racing

Explanatory note
Clause 60 (2) of the Liquor Regulation 1996 currently exempts hotel and retail liquor licences that were in force immediately before 1 August 2004 from the annual licence fee payable under section 56C of the Liquor Act 1982. The object of this Regulation is to extend that exemption so that it also covers a number of “conditionally granted” licences in respect of which the fee for the granting of the licence was fixed by the Liquor Administration Board under section 56 of the Act before 1 August 2004.

This Regulation is made under the Liquor Act 1982, including section 56C (3).
