150A Registrar may write off unpaid fine or other amount
The registrar may write off all or part of a fine or another amount payable by a person under this Act, whether or not any part of the fine or other amount is payable to someone other than the State—
if the person dies; or
if the person is a corporation that has been deregistered; or
if there is insufficient information to establish the identity of the person liable to pay the fine or other amount; or
in other circumstances permitted under a guideline issued by the Minister under section 150B.
However, a fine or other amount that has been written off may be reinstated if—
the fine or other amount was incorrectly identified for writing off; or
the reinstatement is permitted under a guideline issued by the Minister under section 150B.
The fine or other amount—
stops being payable from the time it is written off; and
starts being payable again from the time it is reinstated.
