These Regulations amend the Legal Advice and Assistance (Duty Solicitor) (Remuneration) Regulations 1989 by allowing a determining officer, where a solicitor has failed without good reason to comply with the time limit for submitting a claim for remuneration, to extend the time but with a discretion to reduce the amount payable.
