Natural Resources Wales Consultation on Charging Scheme

Natural Resources Wales are seeking views and opinions on proposals for their fees and charges for 2016-17. This 12 week consultation will close on 26th November 2015 and the results will be used to inform their final scheme, which will be introduced from April 2016. 

Natural Resources Wales is the first organisation of its kind, created to ensure that our natural resources and environment are sustainably maintained, enhanced and used in a way that is good for people, good for the environment and good for the economy. Their Fees and Charges Scheme is reviewed regularly to ensure that costs are covered and technical requirements are being met. As a result of the most recent review they are proposing to maintain the current levels of our baseline charges and to make some minor technical changes within specific charging regimes.

Full details on the consultation HERE.

Deadline for responses is 26th November and you can respond directly (details in the above link). If you would like ORG to respond to this consultation, please contact Jeremy.
