Yes, but not prohibitive. Any symbol would have to be managed to prevent its use by those who are not entitled to use it. I guess the cost covers the management of the symbol so that it remains meaningful.
How much does it cost? The annual licence fee to use the logo is based on the combined annual sales of the products registered. The minimum fee is $300 plus GST for annual sales up to $300,000. For sales over $300,000 and up to $20 million, the fee is 1/10 of 1% - i.e. $1 for every $1000 of sales - plus GST. Where annual sales exceed $20 million, the licensee fee will be $20,000 plus 20 cents for every $1000 over $20 million, up to a maximum of $25,000 (plus GST).
