Where solicitors' fees are payable out of a company's estate the Registrar in taxation under Rule 179 may review and reduce hourly rates agreed between the liquidator and solicitors; accordingly the Registrar properly reduced the claimed rates for trainee and unqualified staff to rates he found reasonable and refused the solicitors' request for review.
