Police Powers and Responsibilities Act 2000

If an adult who is liable to pay costs under section 113(4) fails to pay the costs, the commissioner may give particulars of the costs to the registrar under the State Penalties Enforcement Act 1999 for registration under that Act as if—

the commissioner were the registrar of a court; and

the particulars were particulars of a fine imposed by a court and the amount of the fine were unpaid after the time allowed by the court for payment.

The registrar must register the particulars under the State Penalties Enforcement Act 1999, section 34.

For this section, the adult who is liable to pay costs under this division fails to pay the costs if—

the commissioner obtains an order for payment of costs against the person; and

the commissioner gives the person a copy of the order and a letter of demand for payment of the costs; and

the person fails to pay the costs within 28 days after receiving the copy of the order and the letter of demand, or the longer period agreed to by the commissioner.
