The Governor may make regulations prescribing all matters that are required or permitted by this Act to be prescribed, or are necessary or convenient to be prescribed for giving effect to the purposes of this Act.

Without limiting subsection (1), regulations may —

regulate caravan parks and camping grounds and caravanning and camping generally throughout the State; and

provide for standards of design, construction, installation and maintenance of caravans and annexes; and

provide health and safety standards and standards for services and amenities for facilities; and

regulate pedestrian and vehicular traffic; and

provide that signs may be displayed, erected or marked for the purpose of any regulation; and

provide that the licence holder of a facility may give reasonable directions to any person in the facility regarding any motor vehicle or animal that the person has apparent control over and require that person to obey such directions; and

provide for different types of caravan parks and camping grounds; and

provide for procedures to be followed by a local government relating to prohibition notices under section 10; and

prescribe forms and fees and for information to be provided in respect of licences and applications for licences (including differential or periodic fees or that a fee is to be calculated in a particular manner); and

provide for different types of licences in relation to different types of caravan parks and camping grounds; and

prescribe the conditions under which a particular type of licence may be granted, renewed or transferred and the obligations and rights of licence holders; and

prescribe offences and a modified penalty (or different modified penalties according to the circumstances of the offence) in respect of each offence for the purposes of section 23, but so that no modified penalty exceeds $500.

The regulations may adopt, either wholly or in part and either specifically or by reference, any standard, rule, code or specification —

as at the time the regulations are made, or at any time before then; or

as amended from time to time.

Regulations made under this Act may provide that contravention of a regulation constitutes an offence and provide for penalties not exceeding $5 000 and if the offence is a continuing one a further penalty not exceeding $500 for each day or part of a day during which the offence continues after notice of the offence has been given by or on behalf of an authorised person to the offender.
