The licence fee's for radiographers in the public health system are paid by
the districts, not the individuals. The application fee is a one off, providing
you don't let your licence lapse of course.
The Radiation Safety Act 1999 does not require that a person be registered
with the Board in order to be granted a licence, it is one of the factors which
may be taken in to consideration when a decision is being made.

With regards to David's comments and Leo's reply, registration in Qld. costs $220 per year plus an additional $100 application fee. A radiation licence costs $37 and the application fee is $54. Unfortunately, you cannot be registered without a licence and vice-versa. There are two fees because licencing and registration are administered under two separate Acts.
Radiographers coming to Qld. for locums, while having to pay the costs above, can apply for re-imbursement of the unused portion of their registration fee from the MRT Registration Board. This is done in quarter year increments. For example, someone working 3 months can apply for a refund of the remaining 9 months of their registration fee (excluding application fee and licencing) when they have left the State.
Hope this clears the air a bit in that it is not totally fair to say it costs a locum $411 to work in Qld.

PS. I agree with Tony Smith's comments regards a national registration.

The following note is just one of a number of comments about the rising costs of working as a radiographer in Australia that flow across my desk. The number of radiography vacancies in Qld will remain high if locum radiographers can not apply for limited registration at a pro-rata cost. No-one wants to pay a full 12 month registration fee for a four week locum placement. Other states moving towards registration should look carefully at their fees, and the options available for a limited time period.
The issue of being registered or licensed in each state, and the costs of the AIR membership, is a constant topic of conversation with radiographers wanting information on the advantages of doing locum placements around Australia. Most of the radiographers on working holiday visas from the UK pick one or two states only to work in. At the moment we should be looking at ways to welcome radiographers to come and work in different parts of Australia, the move towards expensive state registration fees will not encourage radiographers to move from state to state. What do you think ??? Leo J Klein.
Dear Leo,
I was amazed at how much registration and a license costs in Queensland: $411 plus expenses to get necessary paperwork.
I felt I couldn't justify paying this amount when all other states range from nothing to $50!
Sadly I turned down the chance to go there. Hope you understand.
In the meanwhile, I managed to source a job near Darwin.
Thanks for your help. Sorry for any inconveniences caused. I hope you can understand.
Best wishes,
David
