3A Simplified outline of this regulation
This regulation prescribes the following:
(a) charges in relation to certain matters connected with the administration of the Quarantine Act 1908;
(b) the persons who are liable to pay the prescribed charges;
(c) exemptions from the prescribed charges.
The prescribed charges are imposed as taxes (see the Quarantine Charges (Imposition—Customs) Act 2014).
This regulation prescribes a charge only so far as that charge is a duty of customs within the meaning of section 55 of the Constitution. To the extent that the charge is neither a duty of customs nor a duty of excise, it is prescribed by the Quarantine Charges (Imposition—General) Regulation 2015.
