These Regulations amend the Legal Aid in Criminal Proceedings (General) Regulations 1968 in consequence of the provisions of the Social Security Act 1986 and of the revocation of the Legal Aid in Criminal Proceedings (Costs) Regulations 1982 (S.I. 1982/1197) by the Legal Aid in Criminal Proceedings (Costs) Regulations 1988.
They increase from £48 to £50 a week the disposable income above which a person receiving legal aid under Part II of the Legal Aid Act 1974 in criminal proceedings and proceedings relating to children and young persons is required, under the Legal Aid Act 1982, to pay a contribution. The scale of contributions is also amended.
