prescribe fees (which may be differential fees) for the provision of information or other services by the Council or the making of applications to the Council; and
be of general or limited application; and
provide that any matter or thing is to be determined, dispensed with, regulated or prohibited according to the discretion of the Minister, the Council or another prescribed authority; and
impose penalties, not exceeding $5 000, for a contravention of, or failure to comply with, a regulation; and
make provisions of a saving or transitional nature consequent on the amendment of this Act by another Act.
The

A provision of a regulation made under subsection (2)(f) may, if the regulation so provides, take effect from the commencement of the amendment or from a later day.
To the extent to which a provision takes effect under subsection (3) from a day earlier than the day of the regulation's publication in the Gazette, the provision does not operate to the disadvantage of a person by—
decreasing the person's rights; or
