National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009

This Part is about the use of infringement notices where ASIC reasonably believes that a provision has been contravened.

Division 2 authorises ASIC to give an infringement notice in relation to a contravention of certain provisions. A person who is given an infringement notice can choose to pay an amount as an alternative to having court proceedings brought against the person for the contravention. If the person does not choose to pay the amount, proceedings can be brought against the person for the contravention.
