        (1)         A registered teacher (including a teacher whose registration has been suspended) must, in each year, pay to the Teachers Registration Board an annual fee in accordance with the regulations.

        (2)         Without limiting the matters that may be dealt with in the regulations, the regulations may—

            (a)         prescribe the fee; and

            (b)         fix the day of the month on or before which the fee is to be paid in each year; and

            (c)         fix the period of 12 months (the "annual fee period") in respect of which the fee is to be paid; and

            (d)         make provisions of a saving or transitional nature in respect of annual fees.

        (3)         If a registered teacher fails to pay the annual fee in accordance with the regulations, the Teachers Registration Board may, by written notice, require the registered teacher to make good the default as specified in the notice and, in addition, pay to the Teachers Registration Board the amount prescribed as a penalty for default.

        (4)         If a registered teacher fails to comply with a notice under subsection (3), the Teachers Registration Board may, by further written notice, suspend the teacher's registration until the notice has been complied with.
