These Regulations make provision about glue trap licensing in England. They delegate glue trap licensing functions conferred on the Secretary of State under the Glue Traps (Offences) Act 2022 (c.26) (“the Act”) to Natural England and provide for charges in respect of glue trap licence applications.
Regulation 2(1) delegates the Secretary of State’s licensing functions under section 2(1) to (4) of the Act to Natural England. Regulation 2(2) authorises Natural England to charge fees related to its licensing functions.
Regulation 3 provides for charges associated with assessing applications for a glue trap licence or the modification of a glue trap licence and requesting further information from the applicant. These consist of a fixed charge, set out in Column 3 of the Schedule to the Regulations and an additional charge of £121 per hour to be calculated according to the number of hours reasonably spent by Natural England in assessing an application for a glue trap licence or modification of a glue trap licence and requesting further information from the applicant. Regulation 3 also enables Natural England to reduce or remit any charge payable under these Regulations.
