Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order effects two changes. The first alters the basis of computation and is intended to produce the present level of revenue. The Order substitutes a flat fee of £215 for the ad valorem probate fee of £2.50 per £1,000 or part thereof in respect of estates with an assessed value exceeding £70,000 and not exceeding £100,000. The second change only effects a clarification. The Order inserts fixed fees of £300 in respect of estates with an assessed value exceeding £100,000 and not exceeding £200,000 and £50 for every additional £100,000 of assessed value or part thereof. These fees replace the present fees of £250 in respect of estates with an assessed value exceeding £100,000 and £50 for every additional £100,000 of assessed value or part thereof.
