(1B) Regulations made for the purposes of subsection (1A) imposing a levy in respect of more than one determination must specify all the funds in respect of which determinations are made and the proportion of the levy that each fund represents.

Add:

(3) Regulations imposing a levy in respect of one or more determinations may specify that either or both of the following are payable:

the maximum amount of levy, and the minimum amount of levy, that is payable;

are to be fixed on the basis that the amount of revenue to be raised by the levy or by the levy and any previous levy imposed because of the same grant or grants of financial assistance is not to exceed the amount of levy needed to recoup the Commonwealth for the amount of that financial assistance.
