Livestock Industry: Licensing
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government how much of the proposed increase in permit variation fees for the pig and poultry industries is due to (1) staff costs, and (2) IT costs; and whether the entire charge will accrue to the Environment Agency.
- Answer
-
The proposal under the Strategic Review of Charges is to recover fully the cost of permit variation of which 71% relates to Environment Agency (EA) staff costs (this excludes the cost of Defra staff within Defra Corporate Services which provide and charge the EA for the service). Around 9% of the proposed charge relates to IT provision and support, most of which is provided by Defra Corporate Services.
The total charge will accrue to the EA.
