Paragraph 3 Type Certificates for types of hovercraft

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

Where an application is made for the issue or variation of a Type Certificate in respect of a type of hovercraft, there shall be paid, for any investigations required by the CAA in pursuance of Article 10 of the Order, a fee of an amount equal to the cost of making the investigations:

Provided that—

(a)

the fee shall not exceed, for the first period of 12 months or part thereof required for carrying out the investigations £45,150 or 93p per kg of the maximum weight of the hovercraft, whichever is the greater amount, and thereafter pro rata for every month or part thereof;

(b)

the cost of the investigations shall not include the cost of investigating any items for which the CAA requires separate type approval;

(c)

the cost of the investigations shall not include the cost of any inspection of a craft which also serves as evidence leading to the first issue of a Safety Certificate for that craft.
