Over 500 of the architects removed for non-payment have now been reinstated to the Register, with over 95 per cent being added back on within five working days.  Last month we reported that 1,204 architects were removed from the Register for non-payment of the annual retention fee.  The number removed from the Register at the year’s start has reduced significantly year on year since 2013, and we want to do more to reduce it still further. We are looking at the feedback we have received this year and we are working to improve our communication and administration for 2018’s fee.
