IR Training and Skill Test abroad

I'm wondering how things work with CAA:

I have a EASA licence, issued by the CAA. I wish to do the IR practical training and skill test in Belgium.

I think there is no special paperwork involved to do the training.

When it comes to the skill test, what I understand is that
1 The Belgium FE will have to register with the CAA, and to be briefed by them
2 Someone (The Flight School, the FE, or myself?) will have to book a skill test with the CAA, requesting that the Belgium FE be designated as the FE for my skill test.
3 I will pay the 795£ fee to the CAA (I have little doubt about that)

Here are my questions:
1 Will the FE be paid out of the 795£ ? If yes how much will he receive? If the answer is no, or if he will receive too a small amount, it would incur extra cost for me, I'd like to know in advance.
2 If the CAA decides that they want another FE for the test, or to send a supervisor, will I have to pay that other FE or supervisor? Will I have to pay for their expenses and travel cost?
3 Will the CAA demand that the aircraft be equipped with screens?
4 Are there any other things I did not think about that might be relevant?

I'm seriously considering having my licence transferred to Belgium if things become to costly/complicated with the CAA.
