The main source of the additional income which it is estimated will accrue to my Department in the current year under subhead W.4. is the increased fees, from 2 February 1981 for certificates of reasonable value in accordance with article 6 of the Housing Regulations, 1980 (Amendment) Regulations, 1981.
By what amount were those fees increased at that time?
They were increased from £20 to £25 for one application and £6 for each additional application. The total amount will be £140,000 extra.
In other words the Minister intends seeing an income of £100,000 in excess of the amount set out in the Book of Estimates.
It is estimated that £140,000 will be received in 1981.
Was that the total?
Yes. That is the total. It is not extra.
