Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations supersede the Industrial and Provident Societies (Credit Unions) (Amendment of Fees) Regulations 1992. They generally increase by about 4% the fees to be paid for matters to be transacted under the Industrial and Provident Societies Acts 1965 and 1967 and the Credit Unions Act 1979. Fees for the inspection of documents are not increased. They also remove fees relating to the hearing of disputes by the Registrar and add a fee for the posting of copies.
