38AB—Registration fees for trailers owned by pensioner entitlement card holders

        (1)         If the Registrar is satisfied by such evidence as the Registrar requires that the owner of a trailer—

            (a)         is entitled, as the holder of a pensioner entitlement card issued under an Act or law of the Commonwealth, to travel on public transport in this State at reduced fares; and

            (b)         the trailer will, during the period for which it is sought to be registered, be wholly or mainly employed in the personal use of the owner,

the prescribed registration fee for that trailer must be reduced by the prescribed amount.

        (2)         This section does not authorise the registration at a reduced fee of more than one trailer owned by the same owner.

        (3)         If the registered owner of a trailer that has been registered at a reduced fee in accordance with this section dies, or ceases to be the owner of the trailer, the registration will, subject to this Act, continue in force for a period of one month after death, or the cessation of ownership, and will, unless the balance of the prescribed registration fee is paid, become void on the expiration of that period.
