24 Transitional provisions relating to Family Court Amendment Regulations (No. 3) 2015
In this regulation —
commencement day means the day on which the Family Court Amendment Regulations (No. 3) 2015 regulation 6 comes into operation;
current fees means the fees payable under these regulations on commencement day;
refund period means the period —
beginning at the time when the Family Law (Fees) Amendment (2015 Measures No. 1) Regulation 2015 (Commonwealth) was disallowed by the Commonwealth Senate; and
ending immediately before commencement day.
A person who paid a fee under these regulations during the refund period is entitled to a refund.
The amount to be refunded is the difference between —
the amount paid by the person; and
the amount that the person would have been required to pay had the current fees been the fees payable during the refund period.
The liability of a person to pay a fee that arose during the refund period is to be taken to be the same as it would have been had the current fees been the fees payable when the liability arose.
This regulation applies despite the amendments effected by the Family Court Amendment Regulations (No. 2) 2015.
