  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations suspersede the Friendly Societies (Fees) Regulations 1986. They generally increase by about 4% the fees to be paid for matters to be transacted and for the inspection of documents under the Friendly Societies Act 1974. However, fees for registration of a society using model rules remain unchanged at £150, while fees for registration of rules other than model rules have been increased from £240 to £260, better to reflect the relative amounts of work involved.",
