In November 2022, the Board published a consultation document, outlining the reasons for a proposed change to the disciplinary levy and sought feedback. The Board’s proposal followed an extensive review of the Board’s financial position and aligns with its financial reserves policies.
Six responses (all in favour) were received and considered by the Board. The Board resolved to approve the fees outlined in this notice with an effective date of 5 February 2024.
