Western Australian Current Acts Western Australian Current Acts (1) Subsections (2)
and (3) apply if the modified penalty specified in a modified penalty notice
has been paid within 28 days or such further time as is allowed.
(2) If this subsection
applies it prevents the bringing of proceedings and the imposition of
penalties to the same extent that they would be prevented if the alleged
offender had been convicted by a court of, and punished for, the alleged
offence.
(3) If this subsection
applies, the CEO must publish —
(a) a
notice of payment of the modified penalty; and
(b) such
particulars as are prescribed.
(4) Payment of a
modified penalty is not to be regarded as an admission for the purposes of any
proceedings, whether civil or criminal.
