Fees

15 Fee payable on application for source licence

(1)

The fees payable under this regulation are payable for each location (or sub-location) from which the applicant will manage or control radiation sources under a source licence.

Example

On 1 March 2020, an applicant applies for a licence that will cover a location in Auckland and a location in Wellington. Under regulation 6(2)(g), the applicant requests that the licence be granted for 2 years (that is, there are 2 authorisation years). The fees in subclause (2) are payable for each of those authorisation years.

For the Auckland location, an inspection period of 2 years is determined under regulation 16. The fee for that location is $1,436 ($718 × 2).

For the Wellington location, 2 separate sub-locations need to be identified under regulation 16(4). For one of those sub-locations, an inspection period of 3 years is determined. The fee for that sub-location is $1,044 ($522 × 2). For the other sub-location, an inspection period of 4 years is determined. The fee for that sub-location is $844 ($422 × 2).

The total fee payable on applying for the source licence is $3,324 ($1,436 + $1,044 + $844) plus goods and services tax. Section 14 of the Act requires this fee to accompany the application for the source licence.

(2)

The fee payable for each authorisation year by a person who applies for a source licence, or a renewal of a source licence, before 7 March 2023 is—

(a)

$1,309, if the inspection period is 1 year:

(b)

$718, if the inspection period is 2 years:

(c)

$522, if the inspection period is 3 years:

(d)

$422, if the inspection period is 4 years:

(e)

$361, if the inspection period is 5 years.

(3)

The fee payable for each authorisation year by a person who applies for a source licence, or a renewal of a source licence, on or after 7 March 2023 is—

(a)

$1,505, if the inspection period is 1 year:

(b)

$825, if the inspection period is 2 years:

(c)

$600, if the inspection period is 3 years:

(d)

$485, if the inspection period is 4 years:

(e)

$415, if the inspection period is 5 years.

16 Determining inspection period for purpose of calculating fees for source licences

(1)

This regulation must be applied to determine the inspection period for the purpose of calculating fees under regulation 15.

(2)

This regulation must be applied for each location (or sub-location) from which the applicant will manage or control radiation sources under the source licence.

(3)

If all practices carried out from the location are—

(a)

fully described in only 1 compliance monitoring category, the inspection period is the period in column 2 of Schedule 2 that applies to that category:

(b)

fully described in each of 2 or more compliance monitoring categories, the inspection period is the longest of the periods in column 2 of Schedule 2 that apply to the categories.

Example

The practices to be carried out under a particular licence are fully described in a category that has a 2-year inspection period under Schedule 2.

The practices are also fully described in a separate category with a 4-year inspection period.

The inspection period is 4 years for the purpose of calculating fees.

(4)

If there is no single compliance monitoring category that fully describes all practices carried out from the location,—

(a)

separate sub-locations must be identified and the practices must be assigned to those sub-locations so that at least 1 compliance monitoring category fully describes the practices carried out from each sub-location; and

(b)

subclause (3) must be applied for each sub-location (as if it were a location) to determine the inspection period applicable to each sub-location.

Example

The practices to be carried out at a hospital under a particular licence cannot be fully described by any single category in Schedule 2.

The applicant identifies 2 sub-locations from which the practices are to be carried out (a radiotherapy sub-location and a radiology sub-location).

The inspection period for the radiotherapy sub-location is 1 year because there is a single category (medical therapy) that fully describes all practices to be carried out within that sub-location. The inspection period for the radiology sub-location is 2 years because there is a single category (medical or dental diagnosis) that fully describes all practices to be carried out from that sub-location.

Fees are payable under regulation 15 in respect of both of those sub-locations.

(5)

Nothing in these regulations limits the power of the Director to impose a condition on a source licence that provides for a different inspection period from the period that applies under Schedule 2.

17 Fee payable on application for use licence

The fee payable by a person who applies for a use licence, or a renewal of a use licence, is $95 for each authorisation year.

18 Fee payable on application for consent

The fee payable by a person who applies for a consent, or a renewal of a consent, is—

(a)

$300, if the consent is for the import or export of high-activity radioactive material on a single occasion:

(b)

$80, if the consent is for the import or export of low-activity radioactive material on a single occasion:

(c)

$400, if the consent is for the import or export of unsealed radioactive material that is low-activity radioactive material on 2 or more occasions during the period of the consent.

19 Refunds

(1)

The Director must refund the whole or a part of a fee that has been paid if—

(a)

the Director imposes a condition on a source licence that provides for a longer inspection period than the period that applies under Schedule 2:

(b)

the Director imposes a condition on a source licence that provides that no inspection period applies in relation to a location or sub-location:

(c)

an application for an authorisation is declined.

(2)

In the case of subclause (1)(a), the amount of the refund is the difference between the fee that was paid and the fee that would have been payable using the inspection period that applies under the condition.

(3)

In the case of subclause (1)(b), the amount of the refund in respect of a location or sub-location is the difference between the fee that was paid in respect of the location or sub-location and the following amount that is applicable:

(a)

$126, if the application is made before 7 March 2023:

(b)

$145, if the application is made on or after 7 March 2023.

(4)

In the case of subclause (1)(c), the amount of the refund is the whole amount of the fee that has been paid.

20 Fees exclusive of GST

The fees prescribed by these regulations are exclusive of goods and services tax.

Miscellaneous

21 Service of compliance orders

(1)

A compliance order that is to be served on a person (A) must be served in accordance with Part 6 of the District Court Rules 2014 (applied with all necessary modifications).

(2)

If A is an individual, the modifications under subclause (1) include that A’s actual or last known postal or electronic address must be treated as an address under rule 6.1(1)(d) of those rules.

22 Form of warrant of appointment of enforcement officer
