DESCRIPTION

The purpose of this output is to ensure the processes used to calculate those levies and charges conform with the provisions of the Fisheries Act 1996 and the Fisheries (Cost Recovery) Rules 2001, and that any changes are advised to stakeholders in time to meet the requirements imposed for appropriate consultation and advice on the final levies.

Commentary |
|
Two levy orders providing the revised cost recovery levies that are consistent with Part XIV of the Fisheries Act 1996 and the Fisheries (Cost Recovery) Rules 2001, with the first levy order to take effect from 1 October 2004 and the amending levy order to be in place by 1 April 2005 |
Quality not achieved, timeliness achieved |
The 1 October 2004 levy order was gazetted in time to meet the 28-day rule. There was one technical error in the input for one research project. This issue was resolved without disadvantaging levy payers. The 1 April 2005 amending levy order was gazetted in time to meet the 28-day rule. There have been no issues identified with this levy order. |
