This costs scale applied between the dates 25 July 2007 and 3 January 2008 both inclusive.
The costs scale effective 4 January 2008 was identical to this version but for one difference: the word "standard" was deleted from item 43E with effect from and including 4 January 2008.

May have been other scales between August 2005 and July 2007 - not recorded here.
