This Order amends the Criminal Defence Service (Funding) Order 2007 (S.I. 2007/1174).
The Order makes a number of amendments to the 2007 Order in the light of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 (Commencement No. 28 and Saving Provisions) Order 2012 (S.I. 2012/1320) (“the 2012 commencement Order”). The 2012 commencement Order commences certain provisions of the Criminal Justice 2003 so that, with effect from 18th June 2012 in certain local justice areas, offences triable either way will be sent from the magistrates’ court to the Crown Court rather than reaching the Crown Court by way of committal proceedings. The Order makes consequential amendments to a number of provisions of the 2007 Order to reflect that fact and ensures that the existing provisions of the 2007 Order in relation to cases sent to the Crown Court also apply to cases sent for trial to the Crown Court in the relevant local justice areas under the commenced provisions.
The Order also corrects a minor error in the 2007 Order.
