Subject to paragraph 3, a percentage on the clear annual income of each ward of court found to be of unsound mind and whose clear annual income is at least £600 shall be payable according to the following rates: ) 2.5% of each annual income amounting to £600 but not amounting to £1,500; ) 3% of each annual income amounting to £1,500 but not amounting to £3,000; ) 4% of each annual income amounting to £3,000 or more, subject to a maximum payment in respect of any one year of £500. 3. Any fractional part of fifty pence in the amount of a percentage shall be disregarded and shall not be levied or paid. PART II: MINOR PERCENTAGES. 1. A percentage on the clear annual income of each minor taken into the wardship of the High Court shall be payable at the same rates as apply to the incomes of wards of court who are of unsound mind, save that no percentage shall be charged on any income not amounting to £600. 2. Where a minor has an interest in property, the Registrar of Wards of Court may apportion as remuneration for any services rendered by the minor in connection therewith such part of the profits accruing to him from the property as appears to the Registrar to be reasonable and no percentage shall be charged on the amount thus apportioned. PART III: CALCULATION, COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL.
