5 Annual charge for facility licence—prescribed radiation facilities
(1) For subsection 4(2) of the Act, this regulation prescribes the amount of the charge for a financial year for a facility licence (other than a facility licence held by a designated licence holder for the year) that authorises persons to do a thing mentioned in paragraph 30(1)(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) of the ARPANS Act in relation to a controlled facility that is a prescribed radiation facility of a kind mentioned in an item in the table in clause 1 of Schedule 2.
Note: The amount of the charge for a financial year for all facility licences held by a designated licence holder is set out in Schedule 2B (see regulation 5B).
(2) The amount of the charge for the licence for the year is: (a) subject to paragraph (b) and subregulation (3), the amount mentioned in the item mentioned in subregulation (1); or (b) if the thing authorised to be done by the licence is mentioned in an item in the table in clause 2 of Schedule 2 (the clause 2 item)—the amount mentioned in the clause 2 item. (3) If the licence authorises persons to do 2 or more of the things mentioned in paragraphs 30(1)(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of the ARPANS Act in relation to the controlled facility, the amount of the charge for the licence for the year is the sum of the amounts of charge that would have been applicable under subregulation (2) if there had been separate licences for each of those things.
Note: Division 5 of Part 4 of the ARPANS Regulations makes provision in relation to the time for payment of the annual charge, pro‑rating and refunds.
