What this means

This document is Annexure “N” to a WRC procurement process: it sets out the tariff fee structure the Water Research Commission will pay legal practitioners, with a separate table for junior legal practitioners (based on years from date of admission) and for senior legal practitioners (silk, based on years as silk). Fees are quoted per hour and per 10-hour day, and the note states that tariff fees exclude VAT, disbursements and other related expenses. The fees come from a parameter issued by the Office of the Solicitor General and used by the National Treasury in RT19-2024 for a panel of legal practitioners to the State over thirty-six months. The annexure ends with a declaration of acceptance for the undersigned practitioner to complete and sign.
