It always used to be the case that the County Court covered its costs with the fees that were charged. The fees were not excessive back then, and I doubt the cost of running the County Courts has risen disproportionately. That leaves one to suppose the cost of running the High Court was the problem,. If that is so one wonders why it would not have been possible to address the issue by looking at why the High Court ran at a loss rather than up the fees across the board.
