This Order provides for the increase in certain fees payable in family proceedings in England and Wales in the Court of Appeal, High Court and county courts. The fee increases are shown in the body of the Order. In most cases, fees have been increased by the cumulative rate of Consumer Price Index inflation. Fee 8.1 has been increased by less than that and fees 14.1 and 14.2 have been increased by more than that.

The cumulative rates of Consumer Price Index inflation since the fees were last increased is detailed in the Explanatory Memorandum which is published on the website of the Office of Public Sector Information along with a full impact assessment which was prepared for this Order.
