Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Legal Aid in Criminal and Care Proceedings (Costs) Regulations 1989 by restricting remuneration for attendance on authorised advocates in Crown Court hearings to cases falling within one or more of six specified circumstances. The first four circumstances relate to the seriousness of the offence or the disability of the legally assisted person, and justify attendance throughout the trial or other hearing; the fifth relates to the sentence which may be imposed and justifies attendance on the last day of any trial or (if different) the sentencing hearing; the sixth follows from the power to certify a case as requiring attendance which is conferred by the Legal Aid in Criminal and Care Proceedings (General) (Amendment) Regulations 1999 which come into effect at the same time as these Regulations. Additional remuneration is provided for advocates who appear unattended, and for authorised litigators who prepare a case in which the advocate is to appear unattended.
