(2) The Board may charge a fee not exceeding $50 for the issue of such a certificate. (3) Such a certificate does not entitle the holder to practise as a surveyor. (4) Nothing in this clause prevents the name of the holder of such a certificate from being restored to the register in accordance with the Act.

EXPLANATORY NOTE
The object of this Regulation is to amend the Surveyors (General) Regulation 1982 to increase certain fees, to correct a typographical error and to provide for the issue of certificates in recognition of the contributions made by retired registered surveyors.

The fees dealt with in the Regulation include: (a) the fee for enrolling as a candidate in a course of studies leading to a recognised qualification in surveying; and (b) the fee for sitting for the prescribed examination; and (c) the application fees for registration as a surveyor, for certificates of registration and for letters of accreditation; and (d) the fee for the restoration of a name to the register of surveyors.
Apart from recent increases in the annual roll fee (not the subject of this Regulation), the last increase in the fees the subject of this Regulation was in 1986.
