NI rejects increased FAC fees

#1 Post by Gaz »

The NI Assembly Committee for Justice has rejected proposals to significantly increase firearms licensing fees in Northern Ireland. The Department of Justice (DoJ) had proposed increases which would have seen fees for an individual firearm certificate rise from £50 to £121. The cost of a firearms dealer’s certificate would have risen from £150 to £528.

Good on them. Hopefully Damian Green's paying attention...

GBP528 for an RFD ticket FFS! Common sense prevailed on this occasion however I doubt it will last forever.

Great news - it's expensive enough what with all those pistols to buy! ;)
