These Rules amend the Legal Aid for Crown Court Proceedings (Costs) Rules (Northern Ireland) 2005, which prescribe the Crown Court remuneration for solicitors and counsel assigned under Articles 29 or 36(2) of the Legal Aid, Advice and Assistance (Northern Ireland) Order 1981.
The Rules introduce new fixed fees for preparation work where, following the conviction of the assisted person, there is a change of representative and the court grants a fresh criminal aid certificate for the purposes of the sentencing hearing.
