HC Deb 26 July 1971 vol 822 cc6-7W
41. Rear-Admiral Morgan-Giles

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what further consideration he has given to the survey fees payable for the registration of yachts.

Mr. John Davies

These fees, in common with fees for other marine surveys, were increased from 1st May, 1971, in order to achieve recovery of the full cost of providing the relevant services, in accordance with Government policy. I have, however, received a number of representations which I am considering.
