Abstract: This column today looks at the imposition of fines being imposed by various public agencies, and reviews recent judicial decisions which provide guidance and direction as to what is expected from public authorities when they decide to impose a financial penalty. Fines are being regularly imposed by the many public agencies that are sprouting year after year. The imposition of a fine, or the threat of it, seeks to achieve obedience to the law, but it is also a convenient way of gaining additional revenue. [extract]
