Section 65(6)

After regulation 20A insert— There are to be charged by and paid to the Department— such fees and charges as may be provided for by a scheme under paragraph (2) (but this is subject to regulations 18(4A) and 19(2)). in respect of applications for registration, and in respect of the subsistence of registrations, The Department may make, and from time to time revise, a scheme (“a charging scheme”) specifying— fees in respect of applications for registration, payable to the Department, by the applicant, in respect of each place to which an application relates; charges in respect of the subsistence of registrations, payable to the Department by persons to whom registrations have been issued. The Department must, when it makes or amends a charging scheme— lay a copy of the scheme or amendments before the Assembly, and publish the scheme or the amendments. A charging scheme may in particular— provide for fees or charges payable in respect of applications or the subsistence of registrations to differ according to the activities to which the applications or registrations relate (including by providing for no fee or charge in the case of some activities); provide for reductions of fees where conditions specified in the scheme are met; provide for the times at which, and the manner in which, payments of fees or charges are to be made; make such incidental, supplementary and transitional provision as appears to the Department to be appropriate. If it appears to the Department that a person to whom a registration has been issued has failed to pay a charge due in respect of the subsistence of the registration, the Department may, by notice in writing served on that person, revoke the registration. In this regulation— “registration” means registration under regulation 18; any reference to an application for registration includes an application for renewal of a registration.
