165D: Payment of infringement fee

You could also call this:

“Fines for breaking rules go to the government”

If you pay an infringement fee, WorkSafe and the Registrar will put that money into a Crown Bank Account. This means the money goes to the government. They must do this with all the infringement fees they get.
