Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These regulations increase the fees payable for registration and other transactions under the Industrial and Provident Societies Acts 1965 and 1967. They revoke the Industrial and Provident Societies (Fees) Regulations 2000. Taking all the fees together, some of which remain unchanged, the overall increase is about 3.6%.
