What I think one problem is there is so much difference ... Its not really
my place to say anything but maybe it would be easier to defend if we had a
proper national pricing structure

that is supported by the national bodies such as the Royal commissions and
EH

In Bucks we charge for commercial enquiries at £45 per hour, with a minimum
charge of £45, and charges calculated in 1/2 hour units. For an additional
£45 we offer a priority service, responding within 2 working days.  We
don't
charge VAT.  Like Neil in North Yorkshire and Liz in Northumberland we were
advised by the VAT specialist in our finance dept that VAT wasn't
applicable
in cases where we're the monopoly supplier of information.
Our Access and Charging Policy is available online at
http://www.buckscc.gov.uk/archaeology/smr_charging.htm

I compiled a table of SMR/HER charges for the SE region when we were
reviewing our charges about a year and a half ago.  The table certainly
needs
updating, but the SE Regional SMR/HER group have been saying for ages that
we'd like to make it available to everyone as a document via the HER Forum
archives.  It might be useful if coverage could be expanded nationally and
the table actively maintained.  Any thoughts? ... Bruce?
