Council agrees fee increase
1 June 2006
At its June meeting, Council agreed a 5% increase in the registration and retention fees for 2007/8 (see table) which will now be submitted to the Privy Council for formal approval.
Council also agreed that non-practising members over the age of 70 on 1 April 2006 should continue to receive free RCVS membership, but only receive some of the RCVS mailings.
It was confirmed that these members would continue to receive voting papers and the Annual Report, and any other publications that were included in these mailings (eg. RCVS News). However, they would no longer be entitled to a free copy of the Register of Members and would therefore not receive the edition of RCVS News normally sent out with the Register in November.
