(a1)  of the steps to be taken for seeking a review of the decision to issue the penalty notice, and
(b)  of enforcement action that may be taken under this Act if the full amount is not paid by the due date, and
(c)  of additional enforcement costs that become payable under this Act if enforcement action is taken.
(2)  If there is an approved form for a penalty reminder notice, a penalty reminder notice must be in that form.
