Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 ("TCEA 2007") Section 29D: Costs or expenses in legal proceedings: authorised persons
New section 29D deals with cases in which costs in relation to proceedings against an authorised person can and cannot be made and against who those costs can be made. It inserts a new power for the Lord Chancellor to make regulations (after consulting the Senior President of Tribunals or his delegate (who must be a judicial office holder)) specifying when a court may order the Lord Chancellor to pay costs in respect of proceedings against an authorised person, and how the amount should be determined. As a consequence, paragraph 42 amends section 49 TCEA 2007 to provide that the affirmative resolution procedure applies.
