Refunds?
A question has been raised on whether the ACVM Group will refund annual fee payments if
the ACVM Act commences before 1 July 2000.
We will not refund any part of the annual fees paid for the 1999/2000 year. The ACVM
Act fee waiver policy (as described in Proposed fees and charges for ACVM Act services
discussion document, which can be found on the website under Publications/Archive) states
that if the costs are 25% more or less than the prescribed fee per product AND the
difference is greater than $150 per product, then a refund will be made. This is to ensure
that the ACVM Group does not incur a net cost for work done in relation to refunds (or to
recover additional charges).
