  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend the provisions of the Legal Advice and Assistance Regulations 1989 (S.I. 1989/340) about remuneration of assistance by way of representation given by duty solicitors in respect of applications for warrants of further detention. Although the intention of regulation 30 of those Regulations was to continue current arrangements, one of its effects would in fact have been to reduce remuneration for the advocacy element of such work. Accordingly, these Regulations restore the current arrangements under which such work is remunerated at a rate one third above the rate for similar work done in normal hours.",
