This Order amends Part 3 (advocacy: exclusion and exceptions) of Schedule 1 (civil legal services) to the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (c. 10) (“the Act”). Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Act describes the matters for which civil legal aid is to be made available (subject to merits and means tests). Part 3 of Schedule 1 excludes advocacy from those services, subject to the exceptions set out in Part 3 of Schedule 1 or the provisions of Part 1 of that Schedule.
