This Act has been repealed and is no longer in force. It is retained for historical reference.
Fixes the fees charged by the Australian Communications Authority for radiocommunications services — testing and retesting of devices, licence issue/renewal/transfer, spectrum registration, examinations, interference work and related administrative tasks. It sets specific dollar amounts, hourly rates, GST treatment, payment timing, exemptions and instalment-processing charges. The Determination affects device manufacturers, licensees, accredited persons and applicants by determining who pays, when and how much for regulatory services, thereby setting the direct compliance and operating costs of radiocommunications activities.
