before commencement of the work pay a deposit on account of the fee, the amount of the deposit to be calculated by reference to an estimate by the appropriate authority of the duration of the work likely to be required and the hourly rate prescribed in respect of that service or function.
(3) If during the course of the work the appropriate authority estimates that the duration of the work likely to be required is greater than the amount deposited under sub-paragraph (2), it may recalculate the deposit and the applicant must pay any excess.
(4) If the duration of the work actually required in consequence of the application is greater or less than its estimated or re-estimated duration, the fee is to be recalculated by reference to the actual duration and the difference is to be paid by, or as the case may be, refunded to, the applicant.
