PUBLIC EXPENDITURE AND RECEIPTS ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1968 - SECT 5

Increase of fees etc.

5.(1) With a view to securing from the fees, charges or other payments
required or regulated by the enactments mentioned in column 1 of Schedule 3 a
net return corresponding more nearly with the cost of the matters for which
they are payable, or to dispensing with payments from which a net return
cannot reasonably be expected, those enactments may be amended by an order
made by the Ministry specified in relation to the enactment in question in
column 2 of that Schedule, so as to vary any sum specified by the enactment as
the amount or maximum amount of any payment, or so as to provide that any sum
payable under the enactment shall cease to be payable.

(2) The powers conferred by subsection (1) in relation to any enactment shall
be exercisable in relation to that enactment as applied by any other
enactment, and shall include power to repeal any enactment superseded by the
exercise of the powers (including any enactment amending an enactment
mentioned in Schedule 3).

(3) Orders under subsection (1) shall be subject to affirmative resolution.
