314 Regulations

(1) The Governor‑General may make regulations prescribing all matters: (a) required or permitted by this Act to be prescribed; or (b) necessary or convenient to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to this Act. (2) Without limiting subsection (1), the regulations may make provision in relation to: (a) prohibiting or regulating any act or thing likely to cause interference, or risk of interference, to radiocommunications; or (b) prohibiting or regulating making of radio emissions from a place within a specified area; or (c) prohibiting or regulating making of radio emissions in a way likely to cause an explosion; or (g) refund of charges on surrender of certificates or licences; or (h) issue and return of duplicates of licences, certificates and permits, and of licences granted under the regulations; or (i) any matter incidental to or connected with any of the foregoing. (3) The power to make regulations in relation to a matter is not limited merely by the fact that: (a) this Act makes provision in relation to the matter; or (b) this Act expressly allows such provision to be made: (i) by legislative rules, equipment rules, advisory guidelines or orders; or (ii) by specifying conditions to which licences or permits are subject. (4) Paragraph (2)(c) is not intended to limit or exclude concurrent operation of a law of a State or Territory. (5) The regulations may provide, in respect of an offence against the regulations, for imposition of a fine not exceeding 10 penalty units. (6) The limitation imposed by subsection (5) on the penalties that the regulations may prescribe does not prevent the regulations from requiring a person to make a statutory declaration.
