Street Works (Inspection Fees) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2001
These Regulations prescribe a scheme for the payment by undertakers for inspections of their works by the Department in streets for which it is the street authority. A fee of £15·50 is prescribed for each chargeable inspection (regulation 3(1)). Where the undertaker holds a licence under Article 11 of the Street Works (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 (“the Order”) a chargeable inspection is every inspection of works or a phase of works subject to a maximum of 30 inspections where the undertaker’s estimated number of units of inspection in a year is less than 100. Where his estimated number of units of inspection in a year is 100 or more, a chargeable inspection is a random inspection of not more than 10·5 per cent of each phase of works or not more than 30 per cent of the estimated total: regulation 3(2)(a) and (b). Where the undertaker is a statutory undertaker, a chargeable inspection is a random inspection of not more than 10·5 per cent of each phase of works or not more than 30 per cent of the estimated total: regulation 3(2)(c).
