The Gender Recognition (Application Fees) (Amendment) Order 2012 (S.I. 2012/920)
Section 7(2) of the Gender Recognition Act 2004 (the βActβ) provides that fees are payable for certain applications to a Gender Recognition Panel under the Act. The Gender Recognition (Application Fees) Order 2006 (S.I. 2006/758) (the βFees Orderβ), as amended, prescribes the level of those fees and the circumstances in which no fee is payable. Two levels of fee are prescribed, depending on the income of the applicant. This Order, which only has effect in relation to applications made on or after 16th April 2012, amends the Fees Order to increase those income thresholds. It raises the income above which a fee of Β£30 becomes payable from Β£18,008 to Β£18,948 and raises the income above which a fee of Β£140 becomes payable from Β£27,005 to Β£28,415.
