Depends on who the query is from. If it is from the farmer or from DEFRA
then we do not charge. If the query comes from a consultant employed by the
farmer to sort the application then we charge at our commercial rate of £50
per half hour (first half hour free) plus a charge per supplied record. We
have had one case of the consultant sending the farmer to us to get the
information free and then the farmer passed the info to the consultant but
we dealt with it.

Does anyone out there charge for the provision of SMR (or other) information
for inclusion into Countryside Stewardship Applications?
and
Does anyone charge DEFRA or RDS for commenting on the completed
applications?
My managers are getting a bit agitated about the amount of work this is
generating and want to see whether anyone is charging for the work and at
what rates...
