Explanatory note

Reproduced verbatim from the instrument as published on legislation.gov.uk (Crown Copyright, Open Government Licence v3.0). The note is prepared by the responsible government department and is not part of the instrument itself.

These Regulations amend the Civil Legal Aid (Scotland) Regulations 2002 to require the resources of any person who owes an obligation of aliment to a child to be taken into account when assessing the child’s financial eligibility for civil legal aid. The requirement is not to apply where its application would produce an unjust or inequitable result in the circumstances.
