If the number of hours sought exceeds 12 hours or the report writer refuses to accept the scale of fees, the matter will be referred to a Senior Grants Officer for consideration.
If a fee is sought for a cancellation/non attendance fee a maximum of 1 hour is payable. Where additional hours are requested, the request should be refused in the first instance. If a request for review of a cancellation/non-attendance fee is received, this request should be treated as a disputed account and referred to the Grants Functional Support Team for final consideration.
