Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Community Legal Service (Cost Protection) Regulations 2000 (S.I. 2000/824). In particular they insert into regulation 5, which contains provisions about costs orders against the Legal Services Commission in proceedings in relation to which a party has been funded by the Commission, a new provision which specifies, in relation to different types of proceedings, which court, tribunal or person may make such costs orders.
