These Regulations amend the Seed Potatoes (Crop Fees) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2004 which charge a fee per hectare or half hectare for the certification and classification of all seed potato crops. These Regulations facilitate the reinstatement of charges for the certification and classification of Pre-basic Tissue Culture potatoes by introducing hourly rates, thus taking into account different methods of growing that do not lend themselves to charging per hectare or half hectare.
