New option helps the disadvantaged pay court fines

"Disadvantaged people are now able to pay off NSW court fines by having the money gradually deducted from their Centrelink payments, NSW Attorney General John Hatzistergos announced. "Failure to pay court fines can result in serious consequences such as the cancellation of a driver’s license, personal property seizure or additional fees, so it is important that disadvantaged people are given manageable payment options," Mr Hatzistergos said."
