General penalty: contraventions lacking specific sanctions attract a monetary penalty under the Act, subject to prescribed limits. Where no specific penalty is prescribed for a contravention of the Act or rules made thereunder, any person who contravenes such provision shall be liable to a prescribed monetary sanction as a residual enforcement measure; this residual penalty functions to secure compliance by covering gaps in the statute's separate penalty provisions and applies to any contravention for which the Act does not otherwise provide a distinct penalty.
