The Community Legal Service (Funding) (Amendment) Order 2008
This Order amends the Community Legal Service (Funding) Order 2007, which imposes conditions on the funding of services as part of the Community Legal Service, by limiting the powers of the Legal Services Commission to pay remuneration under contract for the provision of funded services. Article 5 of this Order substitutes a new Schedule containing revised fees and rates payable for funded services for matters begun on or after 1st July 2008. Most of the fees and rates have been increased; the others remain the same. Article 4 excludes from the application of the Schedule certain contracts which are the subject of competitive tendering. Article 3 corrects the definition of “Unified Contract”.
