(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Certificates of Arrest and Surrender (Royal Navy) Regulations 1972.
Regulation 3(2) of the 1972 Regulations specifies the fee which is payable for a certificate of arrest or surrender handed over under section 110(2) of the Naval Discipline Act 1957. Schedule 13 to the Access to Justice Act 1999 amends section 110 of the Naval Discipline Act 1957 to provide for the fee to be paid to the proper officer instead of to the clerk of the court. The amendment to the 1972 Regulations is consequential to this.
1957 c. 53; section 110 is amended by the Access to Justice Act 1999 (c. 22), section 90 and Schedule 13, paragraphs 22 and 23; section 110(3) is amended by the Defence (Transfer of Functions) (No. 1) Order 1964 (S.I. 1964/488).
