Financial assistance for use of approved interlock devices
48 Financial assistance for use of approved interlock devices
Transport for NSW must establish a scheme under which persons seeking to gain the use of, or who are using, approved interlock devices may obtain financial assistance with respect to the cost of interlock services.
Transport for NSW may approve the provision of financial assistance under this section subject to any means tests and conditions as may be determined by Transport for NSW from time to time.
If it is a condition of the provision of any financial assistance provided under this section that all or part of it be repaid in specified circumstances, the amount of financial assistance that becomes repayable on the occurrence of those circumstances is a debt due to the Crown recoverable in a court of competent jurisdiction.
For the purposes of subsection (3), a certificate issued by Transport for NSW that certifies that it was a condition of the provision of financial assistance that all or part of it be repaid in specified circumstances is prima facie evidence that the assistance was provided on that condition.
Financial assistance is to be paid from the TfNSW Fund established by section 77 of the Transport Administration Act 1988.
