    Increase in Victims Surcharge???

    Is this proposal going to affect the victim surcharge that is attached to speeding and other HTA related offences?

    It says "criminals" so I am going to assume no.

    Starting to think this is for all fines...

    Everyone is commenting "well criminals do not have money etc..." listen folks, this is a huge tax for the rest of the population.

    The Federal Victim Surcharge only comes into effect for Criminal Code and Controlled Drug and Substances Act offences.

    *EDIT* The bill in question:
