Tattoo Industry Regulation 2013

This regulation may be cited as the Tattoo Industry Regulation 2013.

This regulation commences on 6 January 2014.

This section applies if the chief executive is satisfied that a person is the holder of a licence that has been lost, stolen or destroyed.

The chief executive may, on the payment of the fee stated in schedule 1, issue a replacement licence to the person.

The fees payable under the Act are stated in schedule 1.

This section applies for working out the amount of a fee expressed in this regulation as a number of fee units.

For the purpose of the Acts Interpretation Act 1954, section 48C(3), the amount is to be rounded—

if the result is not more than $100—to the nearest multiple of 5 cents (rounding one-half upwards); or

if the result is more than $100 but not more than $1,000—to the nearest multiple of 10 cents (rounding one-half upwards); or

if the result is more than $1,000 but not more than $5,000—to the nearest dollar (rounding one-half upwards).

Example—

If a fee were 35 fee units and the value of a fee unit were $1.015, the number of dollars obtained by multiplying 35 by $1.015 would be $35.525. Because $35.525 is halfway between $35.50 and $35.55, it is rounded upwards, so the amount of the fee would be $35.55.

The chief executive must refund a reasonable amount of a fee paid on an application for a licence, or the renewal of a licence, if—

the chief executive refuses to grant or renew the licence; or

the applicant withdraws the application before the licence is granted or renewed.
