  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend the Criminal Legal Aid (Scotland) (Fees) Regulations 1989 (“the principal Regulations”) (S.I. 1989/1491) to provide that the cap on fees for the duty solicitor set out in regulation 6(2) of the principal Regulations does not apply to appearances on behalf of an assisted person in a court which has been designated as a youth court or domestic abuse court by the sheriff principal (regulation 2). This corrects the error in the Criminal Legal Aid (Scotland) (Fees) Amendment Regulations 2004 (S.S.I. 2004/264) which disapplied for such a court the cap on fees set out in regulation 6(3) of the principal Regulations.",
