The Civil Legal Aid (Scotland) (Fees) Amendment Regulations 2002
These Regulations amend the Civil Legal Aid (Scotland) (Fees) Regulations 1989 (“the principal Regulations”) so that where there is an award of judicial expenses in favour of a person in receipt of civil legal aid, the Scottish Legal Aid Board may, if requested by that person’s solicitor, pay those expenses to the solicitor (and any counsel who acted in the case) instead of the fees and outlays prescribed in the principal Regulations (regulation 4).
