APRA sets the amounts, names the payees (ABS, RBA) and requires payment within 28 days of APRA’s invoice. It matters because it allocates the direct cost of statistical data provision and a shared IT development to those agencies and creates an enforceable payment obligation."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/australian-prudential-regulation-authority-instrument-fixing-charges-no-3-of-2020","history":"/api/acts/australian-prudential-regulation-authority-instrument-fixing-charges-no-3-of-2020/history","analysis":"/api/acts/australian-prudential-regulation-authority-instrument-fixing-charges-no-3-of-2020/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/australian-prudential-regulation-authority-instrument-fixing-charges-no-3-of-2020/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/australian-prudential-regulation-authority-instrument-fixing-charges-no-3-of-2020/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/australian-prudential-regulation-authority-instrument-fixing-charges-no-3-of-2020/documents"}}
