The Gender Recognition (Application Fees) Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/638) (“the 2005 Order”) prescribed the level of the fees payable under sections 1(1), 5(2) and 6(1). It prescribed a fee of £140 for applicants whose relevant income was greater than £22,575, and a fee of £30 for applicants whose relevant income was greater than £15,050 but not greater than £22,575. It prescribed that no fee was payable in circumstances where the applicant’s relevant income was £15,050 or less or the applicant was in receipt of a qualifying benefit.",
