STATE PENALTIES ENFORCEMENT ACT 1999 - SECT 115
Effect of particular proceedings
115 Effect of particular proceedings
(1) If, for an offence— (a) a person served with an infringement notice—
(i) pays the amount owing under an enforcement order for the offence in full;
or
(ii) pays the amount stated in an enforcement order for the offence under
a payment plan; or
(iii) is subject to a work and development order for the
amount stated in an enforcement order for the offence; or
(b) an
enforcement warrant, an immobilisation warrant or an arrest and imprisonment
warrant is enforced against a person served with an infringement notice for
the amount owing under an enforcement order for the offence;
the proceedings
that may be brought against, and the penalties that may be imposed on, the
person for the offence are limited to proceedings and penalties that could be
brought or imposed if the person had already been convicted of, and punished
for, the offence.
(2) Subsection (1) (a) stops applying if the enforcement
order is withdrawn or cancelled after the amount is paid.
(3) The making of
the enforcement order is not a conviction for the offence.
(4) Payment of an
amount for the offence is not an admission for any civil or criminal
proceeding arising out of the event for which the infringement notice was
issued.
(5) The Governor may waive all or part of an unpaid amount stated in
an enforcement order, whether or not any part of the amount is payable to
someone other than the State, and on the giving of the waiver the enforcement
order stops having effect to the extent of the waiver.
