The Community Legal Service (Funding) (Amendment No. 2) Order 2001
This Order amends the Community Legal Service (Funding) Order 2000 so as to disapply contracts which are awarded as part of the housing possession court duty scheme pilot or the alternative methods of delivery pilot from the limits as to rates of payment set out in article 5 of that Order. The purpose of the housing possession court duty scheme pilot is to fund Legal Help and Help at Court for county court housing possession cases more effectively. The purpose of the alternative methods of delivery pilot is to fund and support the provision of Legal Help, Help at Court and Controlled Legal Representation (that is, Legal Representation before a Mental Health Review Tribunal, an Immigration Adjudicator or the Immigration Appeal Tribunal) in new ways. These include, for example, the provision of telephone services and specialist support and advice services for suppliers providing legal services under contract with the Legal Services Commission.
