In Cumbria we charge both for private and commercial use. For private users this works out at 20p per A4 sheet and a minimun of #2.00 for a GIS print up to A1 size. Anyone can come and use the SMR for free. Normally if the request is less than 10 A4 sheets we waive the charge.
For commercial users there is a #10 minimum charge and each A4 sheet costs #1. If there is considerable work involved in producing the information we charge #30 per hour for officer time.
We are still debating what to charge for information which is supplied digiatally, but at the moment the charges are roughly the same as for paper copies.
