Section 979: Amount payable in consortium case
2907.This section determines for the purposes of section 977(1)(b) the amount payable in a consortium case. It is based on paragraph 5 of Schedule 28 to FA2000.
2908.In paragraph 5(1) of Schedule 28 to FA 2000, the words “limited to” merely repeat the point that the amount to be charged in a consortium case is “the appropriate proportion” in paragraph 3(1)(b) of that Schedule. Subsection (1) therefore omits them as otiose.
