Steve,

Reasons regulations are made is to clarify aspect(s) of the Act that may not
be clear, or update those areas since new info has come into being, etc etc.
So the frequency is due to the issues raised from the primary law (Act) and
the necessity of returning to Parliament is taken care of by the secondary
legislation. So in any one year if more than 1 issue arises and the Minister
is notified s/he may gazette necessary regulation(s). Its probable no need
arose since 2001 but now we are all aware of our consumer rights we may
compel the Minister to issue as many regulations as the case(s) requires.
Just like our Constitution has been amended many times since inception
sometimes nothing was done for many years and sometimes many amendments
occurred in one year.
