The Civil Legal Aid (Procedure) (Amendment) Regulations 2014
These Regulations amend the Civil Legal Aid (Procedure) Regulations 2012 (S.I. 2012/3098) (“the Procedure Regulations”). The Procedure Regulations make provision about the making and withdrawal of determinations that an individual qualifies for civil legal services under sections 9 and 10 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (c. 10) (“the Act”). These Regulations amend the evidence requirements relating to victims of, or persons at risk of, domestic violence, and persons with a child who has experienced, or is at risk of, child abuse, who seek civil legal services under the Act.
