39FB  Chargeable permission holders must pay collected amounts to the Authority on time

 (1) A holder of a chargeable permission must pay a collected amount to the Authority before or on the day it is due and payable.

Penalty: 10 penalty units.

Note: If the holder does not pay the collected amount to the Authority before or on the day it is due and payable, the obligation to pay the amount to the Authority continues after the due day, with daily offences being committed until the obligation is complied with (see section 4K of the Crimes Act 1914).

 (2) Subsection 4K(2) of the Crimes Act 1914 ceases to apply in relation to an offence against subsection (1) of this section on the 21st day after the day on which the collected amount is due and payable.

Note: Because of this subsection, 200 penalty units is the maximum penalty that can be imposed for offences against subsection (1).

 (3) If a person is convicted before a court of an offence against subsection (1), the court may order the person to pay to the Authority, on behalf of the Commonwealth, an amount equal to the sum of:
 (a) a collected amount that the person is liable to pay; and
 (b) a late payment penalty that is payable by the person on the collected amount.

 (4) An amount a person is ordered to pay under subsection (3) is in addition to the penalty imposed on the person for an offence against subsection (1).
