for a cost-recovery fee under section 97(2)(c)—the provision of the Local Government Act under which the information is kept; or

for a cost-recovery fee under section 97(2)(d)—the provision of the Local Government Act under which the property or animals are seized; or

for a cost-recovery fee under section 97(2)(da)—the activity, mentioned in the Planning Act, section 106ZM(1), to which the fee relates; or

for a cost-recovery fee under section 97(2)(e)—the provision of the Building Act or the Plumbing and Drainage Act under which the responsibility is imposed.

The public may inspect the register at the local government’s public office.
