I don't understand this bit. Why is it expensive to maintain? Create -
yes. Maintain? It's not that the postcodes are moving around is it.

The PAF is not just postcodes. The PAF is individual addresses. There are 29,144,256 delivery points in the PAF, and that changes every time a new house, office, shop or factory is built.
