The Tribunal held that professional costs under s.10(2)(e)(ii) are to be determined on a time basis because the statutory 'reasonableness' test requires evidence of time expended and the professionals' experience, information not supplied by a one‑fee scale; accordingly the time basis permits the Tribunal to assess reasonableness and avoid potential injustice from mechanical application of a single scale.
