CIVIL AVIATION (FEES) AMENDMENT REGULATIONS 2005 (NO. 2) (SLI NO 322 OF 2005)

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

 

 

Select Legislative Instrument 2005 No. 322

 

Issued under the authority of the Minister for Transport and Regional Services

 

Civil Aviation Act 1988

 

Civil Aviation (Fees) Amendment Regulations 2005 (No. 2)

 

 

 

Subsection 98(1) of the Civil Aviation Act 1988 (the Act) provides, in part, that the         Governor-General may make regulations, not inconsistent with the Act, prescribing matters required or permitted by the Act, or necessary or convenient for carrying out or giving effect to the Act.

 

Under paragraph 98(3)(u) of the Act, the power to make regulations includes the power to make regulations prescribing fees, either by specifying amounts or by prescribing a method of calculation, for services, applications or requests, or the doing of anything under the Act, the regulations or the Civil Aviation Orders (the CAOs).

 

The Civil Aviation (Fees) Amendment Regulations 2005 (the new Fees Regulations) amend the Civil Aviation (Fees) Regulations 1995 (the old Fees Regulations) to revise and extend the list of services for which fees may be charged by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), and to increase the level of existing fees. This is required as part of CASA’s move to full cost recovery for its services in line with the Australian Government’s policy on cost recovery.

 

Cost recovery policies

The Australian Government has adopted a formal cost recovery policy that focuses on the direction Government agencies should take to improve the consistency, transparency and accountability of Australian Government cost recovery arrangements, and to promote the efficient allocation of resources.

 

For the purposes of this policy, cost recovery broadly encompasses fees and charges related to the provision of government goods and services (including regulation) to the private and other non-government sectors of the economy.

 

The government has issued Commonwealth Cost Recovery Guidelines for Information and Regulatory Agencies. These guidelines apply to all Australian Government agencies/authorities and have been developed to assist the design and implementation of the policy. Agencies/authorities are responsible for reviewing all cost recovery arrangements against these guidelines.

 

Response to cost recovery policies

CASA's functions under the Act include the provision of safety regulatory services to the aviation industry. CASA already had some cost recovery arrangements in place in respect of these regulatory services.


 

Twelve different services were specified under the old Fees Regulations and fees were charged at either a fixed rate for particular services, or at an hourly rate based on the number of hours taken to provide the service. These services were charged across a range of segments in the aviation industry, but predominantly to licence and certificate holders.

 

In accordance with the Australian Government’s cost recovery policy, CASA has undertaken a rigorous cost recovery review involving examination of its operating costs and review of its activity levels to identify efficiencies and contain costs.

 

CASA’s Long Term Funding Strategy (LTFS) for financial self-sustainability provides for an increase in revenue from cost recovery from 1 January 2006, to be achieved by expanding the number of services for which CASA may charge a fee to the aviation industry on a cost recovery basis.

 

To assist with implementing the LTFS, CASA embarked on a significant consultation and communication program with the aviation industry (see further details below). To ensure adequate time for the consultation process, the full cost recovery implementation program will be phased in over a three-year period commencing 1 January 2006. The new Fees Regulations represent the first phase of this process.

 

Costing CASA services

In developing the new Fees Regulations, CASA undertook a cost modelling analysis to calculate the true cost of CASA activities. The fixed and hourly fees charged by the new Fees Regulations reflect the calculations and outcome of this analysis. The Regulations now have 24 service categories covering a total of 187 fee items (including the items currently specified). Details of this process appear in the Cost Recovery Impact Statement (CRIS) mentioned below.

 

Some CASA services will attract a cost recovery fixed fee amount (fixed fees). In general terms, these fees are based on the usual length of time taken by CASA to complete the relevant service at an hourly rate of $130.

 

Most other CASA services will attract a cost recovery hourly rate (HR) of $130 per hour.  This rate is unchanged from that in the old Fees Regulations.

 

However, in a case in which the interests of the safety of air navigation require that the service is provided by a senior CASA officer, or an officer with particular experience or qualifications, the cost recovery fee would be $150 per hour. This is necessary to recover the cost of the more senior or experienced person required by the circumstances.

 

Consultation

The new Fees Regulations are a legislative instrument for the purposes of the Legislative Instruments Act 2003 (the LIA).

 

Consistent with section 17 of the LIA, CASA embarked on a detailed program of consultation which involved a number of components, including preliminary advice from the Aviation Safety Forum in November 2004; an industry forum in Brisbane in August 2005; a second industry forum in Melbourne in September 2005; emails sent to industry contacts inviting feedback on the proposals; and a consultation paper and draft fee schedule on the CASA website for comment in October 2005.

 

 

 

 

CASA received over 60 responses to its website cost recovery papers. All responses from the consultation program were considered and taken into account in deciding on the final list of chargeable services and appropriate fees for them.

 

Office of Regulation Review

The Office of Regulation Review has assessed that the preparation of a Regulation Impact Statement is not required for the new Fees Regulations. CASA has, however, prepared and certified a CRIS in accordance with Financial Management Guidelines. The CRIS is available on the CASA website.

 

Details of fees

Details of the new Fees Regulations are in Attachment 1. Specific details of CASA services and fees are in Attachment 3. The descriptions of fees under the old Fees Regulations have been redrafted for clarity and the fees are now set out under revised headings.

 

For comparison purposes, the table in Attachment 2 contains a cross-referencing of the item numbers of services for which fees were paid under the old Fees Regulations with the item numbers in the new Fees Regulations. For consistency in presentation, the descriptions of the services under the old Fees Regulations have been redrafted in the new Fees Regulations.

 

Apart from these cross-referenced items, all other items mentioned in Attachment 3 refer to CASA services for which fees become chargeable for the first time under the new Fees Regulations.

 

The Regulations commence on 1 January 2006.

 


ATTACHMENT 1

 

 

Details of the Civil Aviation (Fees) Amendment Regulations 2005 (No. 2)

 

Regulation 1 – Name of Regulations

Regulation 1 names the Regulations as the Civil Aviation (Fees) Amendment Regulations 2005 (No. 2) (the new Fees Regulations).

Regulation 2 – Commencement

Regulation 2 provides that the Regulations commence on 1 January 2006.

Regulation 3 – Amendment of Civil Aviation (Fees) Regulations 1995

Regulation 3 provides that Schedule 1 amends the Civil Aviation (Fees) Regulations 1995 (the old Fees Regulations).

Regulation 4 – Transitional

Regulation 4 is a transitional provision. Subregulation 4 (2) provides that if, under the old Fees Regulations, a fixed fee was payable, and the person applied for the service and tendered payment of the old fee before 1 January 2006, no additional fee is payable under the new Fees Regulations even if the service is not provided before 1 January 2006.

Subregulation 4 (3) provides that if, under the old Fees Regulations, an hourly rate was payable, and the person applied for the service before 1 January 2006 and received from CASA its written estimate of the amount of the fees payable, and the service is not completed before 1 January 2006, that service must continue to be charged for at that hourly rate until the end of 31 March 2006.

Subregulation 4 (4) provides that if, under the new Fees Regulations, a fee is payable that was not payable under the old Fees Regulations, and the person applied for the service before 1 January 2006, a fee is payable under the new Fees Regulations only to the extent that the service is provided on or after 1 January 2006.

Schedule 1 — Amendments

Item [1] - Regulation 4

Item [1] substitutes new regulations 3 and 4.

New regulation 3 provides explanations for shorthand references to the civil aviation legislation.

It also provides that words used in the new Fees Regulations have the same meaning as they would have in the Civil Aviation Regulations 1988 (CAR 1988) or the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998 (CASR 1998).

 

New regulation 4 provides the formulas for calculating the fees for a service specified in an item in Schedule 1. The items generally describe the regulatory service in terms of the “processing and assessment of an application” for a particular outcome sought by an applicant.

 

The fixed fee for a service specified in an item of Schedule 1 is the fee specified for that item.

The hourly rate for a service in an item which includes the abbreviation ‘HR” will be either $150 per hour in a case in which the interests of the safety of air navigations require that the service be provided by a senior CASA officer, or an officer with particular experience or qualifications, or $130 per hour.

 

A Note explains that in general terms, a service in general aviation is likely to be charged for at a fee of $130 per hour, and a service provided by an air transport Flying Operations Inspector at $150 per hour.

 

New subregulation 4 (3) provides that if the time spent on a service is not a whole number of quarter-hours the total time is to be rounded down to the next lower number of quarter-hours.

 

New subregulation 4 (4) provides that where CASA has processed and considered an application for something, a similar fee is payable for processing and consideration of an application for its renewal or variation.

 

New subregulation 4 (5) provides that the charges for renewal or variation mentioned in subregulation 4 (4) do not include a minor and merely formal change such as the recording of a change of postal address.

 

New subregulation 4 (6) provides that where CASA incurs reasonable travelling and related expenses in order to provide the service, those reasonable expenses constitute an additional fee.

 

New subregulation 4 (7) provides that if the provision of a service by CASA requires CASA to pay a fee or charge there is an additional fee for the service equal to that fee or charge.

 

New regulation 4A provides that if a CASA officer is appointed as an authorised person or a delegate of CASA for any purpose other than his or her official duties, he or she must pay the fee specified in the relevant item for the appointment or the delegation.

 

New regulation 4B provides that nothing in new regulation 4 or Schedule 1 prevents CASA from providing consultancy services to a person under paragraph 9 (3) (f) of the Act on such terms as are agreed between CASA and the other person.

 

New regulation 4C provides that nothing in new regulation 4 or Schedule 1 prevents CASA from setting a reasonable price for goods that it offers for sale in the course of performing its functions.

Item [2] - Schedule 1

Item 2 replaces Schedule 1 to the old Fees Regulations with a new Schedule 1. New Schedule 1 lists by item the services for which CASA will charge the fees that are mentioned for each item.

 

New Schedule 1 contains, under appropriate headings, the services for which fees will be charged. It includes, in redrafted form and under the same headings, the services for which fees are already being charged, along with the services for which fees are being charged for the first time. It contains for each service the appropriate fixed fee or hourly rate that, subject to the transitional provisions in section 4, is charged from 1 January 2006.

 

Attachment 2 contains a cross-referencing of the item numbers of services for which fees were paid under the old Fees Regulations with the item numbers in the new Fees Regulations.

 

The detail for each service and fee is set out in Attachment 3.
