Regulations as to fees and charges for performance of functions
9 Regulations as to fees and charges for performance of functions
The regulations may make provision for and in relation to the imposition and payment of fees and charges in connection with the recovery of costs incurred in the performance of functions under this Act, including by authorising the rules to provide for fees and charges in relation to functions specified in the regulations.
In subsection (1), the reference to the performance of functions under this Act includes a reference to the performance of functions under another Act relating to the performance of functions under this Act.
If it is inappropriate to prescribe a set fee or charge in connection with the performance of a particular function the regulations or rules may provide for the method of calculating the fee or charge, including calculation according to the cost of performing that function.
The regulations may —
authorise the Board to fix, and determine the incidence of liability for, the cost and expenses of the hearing and determination of proceedings before the Board; and
make any incidental or supplementary provision that is expedient for the purposes of paragraph (a).
The application of subsection (4) extends to the cost and expenses of proceedings that are commenced but discontinued or otherwise not brought to finality.
