Divorce fees to drop after hike overrule
AAP
The Senate wants it to be cheaper for Australians to get divorced.
The Australian Greens and Labor joined forces on Thursday to disallow a government regulation to increase divorce fees from $845 to $1195 and fees for subpoenas by $65.
The fees will revert back to their previous amounts, effective immediately.
