EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order approves the Veterinary Surgeons and Veterinary Practitioners (Registration) (Amendment) Regulations 2008 (“the Regulations”) made on 5 June 2008 by the Council of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (“the RCVS”) under section 11 of the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966 (c. 36). The Regulations replace the Schedule to the Veterinary Surgeons and Veterinary Practitioners (Registration) Regulations 2005 with a new Schedule (Table of fees payable).

The Regulations provide for an increase in fees payable for annual registration and retention of names on the registers of the RCVS as set out in the Schedule. The increase in fees for all categories of membership is no greater than 3%. The retention fee for a person registered in the supplementary register under section 8 of the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966, the fee for the restoration of a name to the supplementary register and the fee for restoration to the register under regulation 13(2) for a veterinary practitioner are not increased. No fee is charged for non-practising veterinary surgeons over 70 years of age on 1st April of the year in which a fee would otherwise be due.

The new fees represent the amounts deemed necessary by the Council of the RCVS for the effective administration of the RCVS.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this Order as a minimal impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
