issue of a simple payment licence to those who have held one in the 12 months before the issue date of the new licence (regulations 4(b) and (d)). The scheme has also been amended to take account of the new licence fee of £157.50 applicable from 1st April 2020. The regulations allow for the duration of the licence to be shortened to reflect the fact that it has been purchased on any date later than the due date. This allows the duration of the licences to be set to ensure that all periods of licensable activity are paid for. 

An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as there will be no impact on the private sector and negligible impact on the voluntary sectors is foreseen.
