I don’t know the magnitude of a penalty unit in NSW. In general, in legislation, the penalty (IE fine) for doing something is expressed in penalty units. Government regulation periodically increases the value so that fines for various things keep pace with inflation. Otherwise, legislation that has not been updated in a while could have fines of three farthings for quite serious matters.
I expect one can find somewhere on a local government web site what the current value of a penalty unit is.
