S. 57(2) amended by No. 59/2017 s. 25(c).

    (2)     For the purposes of subsection (1), any enforcement action available is to be taken from the point which the fine or the registered collection and enforcement order to which the removal or cancellation relates had reached in the enforcement lifecycle at the time the payment arrangement was made for that fine or registered collection and enforcement order.

Note

Depending on the stage that enforcement had reached before the payment arrangement was made, a penalty reminder notice may be served, or if not already registered, the infringement penalty may be registered as an infringement fine and a notice of final demand served or any sanction available under this Act following default may be applied.
