Corporation to record demerit points

r. 73

    (1)     For the purposes of section 25(2) of the Act, the Corporation must record in the Demerits Register the appropriate number of demerit points against a person if it is duly notified that—

        (a)     the person has been convicted, or found guilty, of a relevant offence; or

        (b)     the penalty specified in an infringement notice issued to the person in relation to a relevant offence has been paid; or

        (c)     the person has had a conviction imposed by a court under section 89(4) of the Act in relation to a relevant offence; or

        (d)     an infringement notice issued to the person in relation to a relevant offence has taken effect as a conviction under section 89A(2) of the Act; or

        (e)     an enforcement order has been made against the person and not revoked under Division 2 of Part 4 of the Infringements Act 2006 or Schedule 3 to the Children, Youth and Families Act 2005 in relation to a relevant offence; or

        (f)     a proceeding against the person for a relevant offence has been adjourned under section 128A(2) of the Magistrates' Court Act 1989 .

    (2)     If, but for this subregulation, demerit points would be recorded in respect of offences under section 49(1)(b) and section 49(1)(f) or (g) of the Act that occur in relation to the same period of driving or being in charge of a motor vehicle, demerit points may be recorded only in respect of one of those offences.

    (3)         Despite anything to the contrary in this regulation, the Corporation must not record demerit points against a person in the Demerits Register if     more than 12 months have elapsed since the Corporation was duly notified of a relevant event.
