Does this cover 5 years

Yes.

I assume the rise to £400 is still to follow at some point.

This feels like a quick 'slot in' rise for now.

it will make the £400 cost feel less painful/obvious further down the line.

The £400 figure was never a government figure to my knowledge, not presented in any questions/policy. Happy to be corrected.

There was a news report on the fee increase stating that it "could" be as much as £400, which everyone then ran with.

Still out of a lot of people's reach 400 is big ask if it goes to that, if got family, always has been a rich persons hobby

Hope you’re right.

But once £400 is mentioned it becomes a thing…….
