For reasonable adjudicators鈥� fees 鈥� well, you only have to ask

Money

John Redmond鈥檚 article 鈥淟ife On The High Fees鈥� (26 April, page 81) is correct to point out the ridiculously high fees charged by some adjudicators.

However, he should know that the RICS will nominate an adjudicator at or below the rate of fees stipulated by the applicant in its application form for a nomination 鈥� for example, an adjudicator鈥檚 rate not to exceed 拢200 per hour. It is a procedure I have successfully used over the last three to four years when seeking a nomination for an adjudicator from the RICS.
