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

The fees replaced are also GST inclusive, but differed as actually charged from their originally prescribed amounts, which were amended indirectly on the first imposition on 1 October 1986, and on the 1 July 1989 and 1 October 2010 increases in the rate, of GST.
