(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations make changes to the references, in the Legal Aid in Civil Proceedings (Remuneration) Regulations 1994, to the Rules of the Supreme Court and the County Court Rules, resulting from the revocation of those Rules, and their replacement, by the Civil Procedure Rules 1998. They also limit the amount which, under the Legal Aid in Civil Proceedings (Remuneration) Regulations 1994, can be allowed in a fast track claim in respect of advocate’s cost and the costs of a legal representative’s attendance at trial, to the fixed amounts prescribed by the Civil Procedure Rules.
