Tasmania regulation
These regulations specify which offences under the Australian Consumer Law (Tasmania) may be dealt with by infringement notices and set the penalty (in penalty units) for each listed offence (Reg 3; Schedule 1). Regulation 4 separately prescribes infringement penalties for breaches of a code of practice, with higher penalties for corporations. The instrument affects people and businesses who commit those listed breaches by creating a fixed-penalty enforcement path and by expanding the regulatory options available under s 25 of the Act.
