Mining Regulation Fees

In reply to Mr VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart) (12 November 2014). (First Session)

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Small Business): I am advised there are no instances where the fees determined under the Mining Regulations 2011 were invalid or incorrect in the TMS for an extended period of time. I am advised of an instance in July 2014 where 2 fees were updated incorrectly in the TMS when the fees changed on 1 July 2014. This data entry error was detected through departmental processes and corrected by 18 July 2014.
