Agenda item

Report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection.

The Committee considered a report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection that sought approval to the 2016/17 Massage and Special Treatment Licence fees and the fees for those premises seeking to register for acupuncture, tattooing, ear and cosmetic piercing or electrolysis.

In response to a Member’s question, the Director of Port Health and Public Protection advised that some fees had reduced in comparison to 2015/16 because the fees could only be set on a full cost recovery basis in accordance with the Licensing Act.

RESOLVED – That the proposed fees for 2016/17 be approved.
