(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules amend, from 1st April 1992, the Lands Tribunal for Scotland Rules 1971 for the purpose of increasing the fees payable to the Tribunal. They provide at paragraph 1(ii) of the Table in the Schedule to the Rules a separate fee payable for applications subsequent to initial applications; previously the fees were payable at the same rate. They introduce different levels of fees at paragraphs 2 and 3 of the Table to take into account differences in value and provide at paragraphs 4 and 5 separate fees for appeals previously payable under the equivalent of what is now paragraph 6. They also introduce into paragraph 8, for the purpose of calculating the hearing fee, appeals under Part VC of the 1971 Rules.
