### sec.20 Fees for licences
A licensing fee is payable to the chief executive by the operator of a people mover system in respect of which a licence is issued.
The licensing fee shall, in the discretion of the chief executive, be—
an amount fixed by the chief executive; or
the sum of the amounts fixed by the chief executive for each people moving vehicle used in operating the people mover system; or
an amount per cent as fixed by the chief executive of the gross revenue derived from the operation of the people mover system; or
a combination of the amounts referred to in paragraphs (a) and (c) .
The licensing fee, and any instalment thereof, shall become due and payable to the chief executive at the time and in the manner the chief executive prescribes and any unpaid amount may be recovered by it as a debt due and owing to it by the operator of the people mover system.
Subsections (1) to (3) apply so as to authorise the chief executive to determine differently the amount or rates of the licensing fee payable in respect of different licences and in respect of different parts of the same people mover system and, for that purpose, different parts of the same system as fixed by the chief executive shall each be deemed to be a separate system the operation of which is authorised by a licence.
