Clause 1 provides the short title and commencement of the legislation. Clause 2 amends the definition of the term \u201cpedal cycle\u201d set out in section 2 of the principal Act. By virtue of paragraph (c) of the current definition, a pedal cycle is described as a \u201cmotorised bicycle or cycle propelled by means of pedals capable of being driven in excess of 15 miles per hour\u201d. The proposed amendment to paragraph (c) would remove, from the definition, the reference to speed. Clauses 3 and 4 relate to the validation of fees collected by the Director of Licensing. Clause 3 deals with cases where, prior to the commencement of this amending and validating legislation, the Director of Licensing charged and collected fees for the provision of a single registration plate or a single trade plate in relation to motor cycles or trailers. Since no fee is currently prescribed for the provision of single registration plates or single trade plates, clause 3 seeks to validate the fees that were charged and collected without statutory authority prior to the commencement of this amending and validating legislation. Clause 4 provides that this amending and validating legislation does not affect a court order relating to fees collected by the Director of Licensing, prior to the commencement of this amending and validating legislation, for the provision of a single registration plate or a single trade plate in relation to motor cycles or trailers.
