The text of most of the Articles of the Additional Facility Rules are followed by explanatory comments. These Rules provide for non-refundable fees, expressed in Special Drawing Rights, of SDR 100 each for an application for approval under Article 4 of the Additional Facility Rules and for notice of commencement of proceedings. Fees of conciliators, arbitrators and members of fact-finding committees are, unless otherwise agreed between them and the parties, determined on a time basis at the rate of SDR 350 per day of meetings or other work performed in connection with the proceedings. These fees are subject to adjustment by the Secretary-General in the light of changes in price levels. Advance payments in respect of estimated fees and administrative charges are required on a quarterly basis.
