The Civil Legal Aid (Remuneration) (Amendment) Regulations 2015
These Regulations amend the Civil Legal Aid (Remuneration) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/422) (“the Remuneration Regulations”), which make provision about the payment by the Lord Chancellor to persons who provide civil legal services under arrangements made for the purposes of Part 1 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (c. 10) (“the Act”). These Regulations replace the Civil Legal Aid (Remuneration) (Amendment) (No. 3) Regulations 2014 (S.I. 2014/607), which were quashed by the High Court by order dated 19th March 2015 in Q (on the application of Ben Hoare Bell Solicitors & others) v Lord Chancellor, [2015] EWHC 523 (Admin).
