Open this file to read the rules that sit around the per-category rates. One row is a schedule-level term: the schedule source, the data period, an extra fee, a flat tier or an eco-modulation rule.

The rows were read from 76 source documents between September 29, 2026 and November 5, 2026. Where a source states an effective date, it falls between January 1, 2013 and January 1, 2027.

49 of the 266 rows are pending. A pending row stays in the file with an empty value and a stated reason, so you can see which figures are not yet published and filter them out before you compute.
