40A Content of notice
An infringement notice is to be in the prescribed form and is to —
contain a description of the alleged offence;
advise that if the alleged offender does not wish to have a charge of the alleged offence heard and determined by a court, the amount of money specified in the notice as being the modified penalty for the offence may be paid to the Regulator within a period of 28 days after the giving of the notice; and
inform the alleged offender as to how and where the modified penalty may be paid.
In an infringement notice the amount specified as being the modified penalty for the offence referred to in the notice is to be the amount that was the prescribed modified penalty at the time the alleged offence is believed to have been committed.
The modified penalty that may be prescribed for an offence is not to exceed 20% of the maximum penalty that could be imposed for that offence by a court.
