At first sight you would think so, but the CAA are taking the view that the maintenance progran will have to be customised for each individual aircraft (due to eqipment fit) and this requirews that the equipment manufactures maintenace program has to be used insted of LAMP.
The cost comes because this data has to be put into a program and then sent for CAA approval via the 13 page form, You cant expect any CAMO to do this for free.
In my view there is no safety case for the changes, if you view the safety record of other EASA states they fail to match the safety record of the UK CAA so the only reason for the changes are to keep the so called European Air Safety Agency in work.
