The Rules of the Supreme Court (Amendment) 1972
These Rules make fresh provision for the allowance of a refresher fee to counsel on a taxation of costs in the Supreme Court (rule 2). A single judge is authorised to make an interlocutory order in an appeal to a Divisional Court of the Family Division under the Matrimonial Proceedings (Magistrates' Courts) Act 1960 (c. 48) or the Guardianship of Minors Act 1971 (c. 3) and the time for appealing under the latter Act is extended from 28 days to 6 weeks (rule 4). Order 91, which deals with Revenue proceedings in the Chancery Division, is amended so as to take into account the consolidation of the relevant statutory provisions (rule 5). The procedure on an application for the enforcement of an order of the Charity Commissioners is clarified (rule 7) and some other minor amendments are made in the Rules of the Supreme Court (rules 3, 6 and 8).
