It is interesting how they say the high pricing at the moment has out back a aim they have which seems to come from there being the BS7666 standard of all software storing address in BS7666 with UPRNs. This would certainly help with some of problems at my work we have with addresses. But with how prices are and inertia to continue as have been very unlikely to be used.

The fields the addresses are held in are limiting and not constant due to way implemented, and there is a mismatch between how some templates use fields and how data is transferred from these fields to other systems.
