(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Costs in Criminal Cases (General) Regulations 1986 to make provision for the determination of the proper fee or costs of a person appointed by the Crown Court under section 4A of the Criminal Procedure (Insanity) Act 1964 to put the case for the defence. (The fees are determined on the same principles and under the same procedure as the costs allowed to persons awarded their costs out of central funds).
