COST RECOVERY PRINCIPLE

House business operates on a cost-recovery basis. They have a contractual duty to break even over time and reach an annual average return (surplus) of 3.5 per cent. 

Our fees are linked to the forecast costs of delivering each service and how customers access those services. It is required under guidelines from European Law and the HM Treasury.

When we set our fees we consider a number of things to be.

Guidance on the management of public funds suggests that we have to limit our rates to recover the full cost of each individual service-enabling a capital expense of 3.5 per cent. That prohibits cross-subsidies between various services. 

The EC First Company Law Directive means the creation of copies of company documents must be made available at the administrative expense.
