  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend the Greater London Magistrates' Courts Authority (Constitution) Regulations 1999 as follows:\nRegulation 13 (co-opted and appointed members) is amended by providing that co-opted members of the Greater London Magistrates' Courts Authority may serve for a maximum of three years only unless there are exceptional circumstances. Any period of service before 1st September 2001 is disregarded. A consequential amendment is made to regulation 9 (eligibility for membership of the Authority).\nRegulation 18 (exercise of default powers) is amended by substituting a new paragraph (10) so as to clarify how the maximum periods of service allowed under the Regulations are calculated if the Lord Chancellor exercises his default powers.\nThe rates in Schedule 4 for travelling allowance payable to members of the Greater London Magistrates' Courts Authority are increased (except for the use of vehicles of 1401cc to 1500cc where the rate is reduced).",
