FINANCIAL SERVICES COMPENSATION SCHEME OF LAST RESORT LEVY REGULATIONS 2023 (F2023L00989) - REG 17

Amount of special levy--basic levy component does not apply to the leviable sub-sector

             (1)  This section applies to the person if section 16 does not apply to the person in relation to the leviable sub-sector.

             (2)  The amount of levy imposed by section 9 of the Act on the person for the levy period and the leviable sub-sector is worked out using the formula:

Start formula open square bracket total special levy minus open round bracket minimum levy component times sub-sector population close round bracket close square bracket times start fraction graduated entity metric over sub-sector metric end fraction end formula

where:

"graduated entity metric " has the same meaning as in section 10 of the ASIC Supervisory Cost Recovery Levy Regulations 2017 for the person for the leviable sub-sector:

                     (a)  for the financial year that is the qualifying period for the levy period; and

                     (b)  for the purposes of levy of the kind worked out under those regulations.

"sub-sector metric " means the sum of the amounts of graduated entity metric:

                     (a)  for the financial year that is the qualifying period for the levy period; and

                     (b)  for the leviable sub-sector for all persons that form part of the sub-sector population.

"sub-sector population " means the difference between:

                     (a)  the sub-sector p opulation (within the meaning of section 10 of the ASIC Supervisory Cost Recovery Levy Regulations 2017 ) for the leviable sub-sector:

                              (i)  for the financial year that is the qualifying period for the levy period; and

                             (ii)  for the purposes of levy of the kind worked out under those regulations; and

                     (b)  so many of that population as are not subject to the AFCA scheme at any time during that qualifying period.

"total special levy " means, subject to subsection (3), the total amount of special levy specified, under paragraph 1069H(5)(b) of the Corporations Act 2001 , for the leviable sub-sector in the Ministerial determination.

Note:          For the minimum levy component, see subsection 9(2).

             (3)  However, if the sum of the total amounts of special levy specified, under paragraph 1069H(5)(b) of the Corporations Act 2001 , for all sub-sectors in the Ministerial determination exceeds the amount remaining in the scheme levy cap, the total special levy is worked out using the formula:

Start formula amount remaining in the scheme levy cap times start fraction total special levy for the leviable sub-sector over total special levy for all leviable sub-sectors end fraction end formula

where:

"amount remaining in the scheme levy cap " means the amount by which the scheme levy cap exceeds the total amount of levy already imposed for the levy period:

                     (a)  across all persons across all sub-sectors; and

                     (b)  before the Ministerial determination was made.

"total special levy for all leviable sub-sectors " means the total amount of special levy specified, under paragraph 1069H(5)(b) of the Corporations Act 2001 , for all sub-sectors in the Ministerial determination.

"total special levy for the leviable sub-sector " means the total amount of special levy specified, under paragraph 1069H(5)(b) of the Corporations Act 2001 , for the leviable sub-sector in the Ministerial determination.

Note:          This subsection ensures the scheme levy cap will not be exceeded.

             (4)  However, if a component of a formula in this section is nil or a negative amount, the amount of levy worked out using the formula is nil.
