Supplementary Revenue Details
Schedule of Fee Changes
In preparing the Budget, Government departments were challenged to ensure that the programs and services they provide are essential and affordable. In assessing affordability, a consideration is to ensure that, where appropriate, those who benefit directly from a service pay a reasonable share of the cost of delivering that service. Therefore, some fees increases are being made and certain new fees are being introduced to help better achieve cost recovery, as well as to contribute to the overall regulatory costs of Government.
