Explanatory note

This note is not part of the regulations, but is intended to indicate their general effect.

These regulations, which come into force on 1 July 2019, prescribe the rates of motor vehicle levy, motorcycle safety levy, and fuel levy.

These regulations remove the graduated reduced motor vehicle levy for light passenger vehicles that applied under the Accident Compensation (Motor Vehicle Account Levies) Regulations 2017 (the 2017 Regulations). Instead, Schedule 2 specifies the following:

a flat levy rate of $46.04 for petrol-driven passenger vehicles and for light electric vehicles; and
a higher flat rate of $104.65 for non-petrol-driven passenger vehicles.

These regulations also carry forward the provisions in the 2017 Regulations in relation to the Fleet Safety Incentive Programme.

These regulations revoke and replace the 2017 Regulations.
