I apologise. The effect of the amendments is to increase the flexibility of the fee regulations, and in particular to extend the time that a local authority has to determine a request for approval in the unlikely event that the payment of a fee that had been thought to have been made had in fact not been made—for example, if a cheque was dishonoured for some odd reason. There are no new public expenditure implications arising from the amendments.

Lords amendment agreed to.
