In early 2008 the APVMA commenced a review of its cost recovery arrangements. The APVMA sought stakeholder input into this process and released a draft Cost Recovery Impact Statement (CRIS) in December 2008. A final CRIS was produced in August 2009.

The Hon Tony Burke, Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, has recently advised that he has decided to increase a range of fees charged by the APVMA by 10% effective from 1 July 2010. This increase will apply to the annual fee on product registrations, new application fees for evaluation and approval (category and modular), HGP notification number application and renewal fees, Certificate of Export fees, new GMP licences and database information fees. Levies will not change.

This change, subject to a change in the appropriate regulation, will be given effect by a variation to an earlier CRIS developed for the APVMA by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) in 2005.

The Minister has advised that the increase is an interim measure and that further changes to the APVMA’s cost recovery arrangements will be considered within twelve months in line with expected reforms to the operation of the APVMA.

Administratively, a letter advising of the revised annual fee and payment arrangements will soon be sent to all registrants. The new annual fee will apply to products maintained on the register for 2010-2011. A revised schedule of application fees will also be developed. Information on both these matters and related implementation issues will be published on this page and communicated in the APVMA’s Gazette and email newsletter Regulatory Update.

APVMA will be liaising with DAFF to review and publish an amended version of the 2005 CRIS, and put processes in place so that further changes to the cost recovery arrangements can be considered as part of the broader reform agenda currently underway.
