There were two reasons for the increase: The first was I have to turn my attention to preparing the written arguments and do not want to be burdened with having to prepare, file and serve notices-of-application and the second was the Court's request for mediation. Had CIC accepted the offer, it would effectively have agreed to settlement. Now that it has rejected that offer, those who join now are in the same position as those who applied earlier. So, yes, I'll the rate to the end of the year.
