All recommended scales consist of lump-sum amounts that are contingent upon the characteristics of the case and the extent to which it has progressed. The scales are intended to apply in 1998.
Court fees are in addition to each scale.
The courts always have discretion to make orders as to costs. Each of the following scales is intended to apply only in the absence of an order by the court to the contrary. The cost of the Special Leave Application is not accounted for in this scale.
