Control Area ICAO
Defined as controlled airspace extending upwards from a specified limit above the earth
Question
What is the minimum specified limit above the earth?
i.e the lower limit of a control area shall be a height not less than ???
Can't find any reference in the ATC section of the Jepps so would be grateful for any info.
By the way I know it is not zero because then it would be a Control Zone

The limit is whatever the regulator specifies for that geographical location ie the altitudes they publish in their AIP/charts that say "Here there be CTA between altitude xxx & altitude yyy".
