These Regulations amend the Criminal Legal Aid (Contribution Orders) Regulations 2013, (S.I. 2013/483) (the “2013 Regulations”). The 2013 Regulations make provision in relation to the liability of individuals who are in receipt of representation in the Crown Court under section 16 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (c. 10) (“the Act”) to make a payment in connection with the provision of such representation. The liability to make such a payment is based on an assessment of the financial resources of the individual.
