Just a point to consider

No one is asking you to work illegally - the Act allows for you to apply for a waiver of fees and until such time as the Board turns down the application we understand that you can continue to work legally. Once you get the letter back from them, then you either have to licence or appeal. If you appeal, then you are still working legally. It is a passive protest, and the details will be outlined in this week's newsletter. If you have any questions after reading it, then email the Federation.
