EMA infringement example

Do you have this type of notice? This is an Emergency Management Act Infringement Notice issued to an individual person.

If you do not want to be prosecuted in court for the alleged offence, pay the Modified Penalty by the Due Date. If no payment is received by the Payment Due Date, a Final Demand notice will be issued which will incur additional costs.

Paying an infringement is not regarded as an admission for the purposes of any civil or criminal court case, and does not have to be declared on your criminal history.

The range of payment options are included in the FAQs and also listed on the Infringement Notice and the Final Demand. Alternatively, if you want this matter dealt with by prosecution in court, the Infringement Notice and the Final Demand contain a Court Election option to be completed and returned by post by the Payment Due Date.
