(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) Fees Order 2011 (S.I. 2011/2841). It reduces the fees payable for appeals heard in the Immigration and Asylum Chamber of the First-tier Tribunal, thereby reinstating the fees that were payable prior to the coming into force of the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) Fees (Amendment) Order 2016 (S.I. 2016/928) (‘the 2016 Order').
Where an appellant consents to an appeal being determined without a hearing, the new fee is £80 (formerly £490). Where the appellant does not consent to the appeal being determined without a hearing, the fee is £140 (formerly £800) (article 3).The new fees will be payable in respect of a notice of appeal given to the First-tier Tribunal on or after the 29th November (article 4).
A full impact assessment was conducted when the 2016 Order was introduced. That impact assessment also included the impact on the costs of business, the voluntary sector and the public of setting fees at the level contained in this Order. It is available at https://legislation.gov.uk.
2007 c. 15; relevant amendments were made to section 42 by S.I. 2010/21 and S.I. 2013/2042.
