Thank you for identifying this as Australia. Fg2 (talk) 01:58, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

History

The article needs some history, showing when the concept first arose; was first enacted; and was amended (if it has been). The history could reuse and expand upon the current "Rationale" section, which I see gives no references.

Some international context would also be useful; do other legal jurisdictions – beside the Australian ones mentioned here – have a similar concept (under any name) of automatic indexation of fines and fees?
