Be it enacted by the Queen’s most Excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:— The Lord Chancellor is under a duty to ensure that there is an efficient and effective system to support the carrying on of the business of— the Senior Courts the Court of Protection, the county court, the family court, and magistrates' courts, and that appropriate services are provided for those courts. In this Part— “the Senior Courts” includes the district probate registries, and “magistrates' court” includes a committee of justices. In this Part references to the Lord Chancellor’s general duty in relation to the courts are to his duty under this section. The Lord Chancellor must, within 18 months of the coming into force of this section, and afterwards annually, prepare and lay before both Houses of Parliament a report as to the way in which he has discharged his general duty in relation to the courts. The Lord Chancellor may appoint such officers and other staff as appear to him appropriate for the purpose of discharging his general duty in relation to the courts. The civil service pension arrangements for the time being in force apply (with any necessary adaptations) to persons appointed under subsection (1) as they apply to other persons employed in the civil service of the State. “The civil service pension arrangements” means— the principal civil service pension scheme (within the meaning of section 2 of the Superannuation Act 1972 (c. 11)), and any other superannuation benefits for which provision is made under or by virtue of section 1 of the 1972 Act for or in respect of persons in employment in the civil service of the State. Subject to subsections (5) and (6), the Lord Chancellor may enter into such contracts with other persons for the provision, by them or their sub-contractors, of officers, staff or services as appear to him appropriate for the purpose of discharging his general duty in relation to the courts. The Lord Chancellor may not enter into contracts for the provision of officers and staff to discharge functions which involve making judicial decisions or exercising any judicial discretion. The Lord Chancellor may not enter into contracts for the provision of officers and staff to carry out the administrative work of the courts unless an order made by the Lord Chancellor authorises him to do so. Before making an order under subsection (6) the Lord Chancellor must consult— the Lord Chief Justice, the Master of the Rolls, the President of the Queen's Bench Division, the President of the Family Division, and the Chancellor of the High Court. as to what effect (if any) the order might have on the proper and efficient administration of justice. An order under subsection (6) may authorise the Lord Chancellor to enter into contracts for the provision of officers or staff to discharge functions— wholly or to the extent specified in the order, generally or in cases or areas specified in the order, and unconditionally or subject to the fulfilment of conditions specified in the order. The Lord Chancellor may provide, equip, maintain and manage such court-houses, offices and other accommodation as appear to him appropriate for the purpose of discharging his general duty in relation to the courts. The Lord Chancellor may enter into such arrangements for the provision, equipment, maintenance or management of court-houses, offices or other accommodation as appear to him appropriate for the purpose of discharging his general duty in relation to the courts. The powers under— section 2 of the Commissioners of Works Act 1852 (c. 28) (acquisition by agreement), and section 228(1) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (c. 8) (compulsory acquisition), to acquire land necessary for the public service are to be treated as including power to acquire land for the purpose of its provision under arrangements entered into under subsection (2). “Court-house” means any place where a court sits, including the precincts of any building in which it sits. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The Greater London Magistrates' Courts Authority (the magistrates' courts committee for Greater London) and all the magistrates' courts committees for areas of England and Wales outside Greater London are abolished. In consequence of that— England and Wales outside Greater London is no longer divided into magistrates' courts committee areas, and the office of justices' chief executive is abolished. Schedule 2 (abolition of magistrates' courts committees: transfers) has effect. The Justices of the Peace Act 1997 (c. 25) ceases to have effect. There shall be a commission of the peace for England and Wales— issued under the Great Seal, and addressed generally, and not by name, to all such persons as may from time to time hold office as justices of the peace for England and Wales. England and Wales is to be divided into areas to be known as local justice areas. The areas are to be those specified by an order made by the Lord Chancellor. Each local justice area established by order under subsection (2) is to be known by such name as is specified in the order (but subject to subsection (4)). The Lord Chancellor may make orders altering local justice areas. “Altering”, in relation to a local justice area, includes (as well as changing its boundaries)— combining it with one or more other local justice areas, dividing it between two or more other local justice areas, and changing its name. Before making any order under subsection (2) or (4), the Lord Chancellor must consult the Lord Chief Justice. Before making an order under subsection (4) in relation to a local justice area the Lord Chancellor must consult— the justices of the peace assigned to the local justice area, unless the alteration consists only of a change of name, any local authorities whose area includes the local justice area or a part of the local justice area. “Local authority” means— any council of a county, a county borough, a London borough or a council of a district, the Common Council of the City of London, or a police and crime commissioner or the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime. The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise his functions under this section. In this Act “lay justice” means a justice of the peace who is not a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts). Lay justices are to be appointed for England and Wales by the Lord Chief Justice by instrument on behalf and in the name of Her Majesty. Subject to the following provisions of this section and to sections 11 to 15, a person appointed under subsection (1) is to hold and vacate office as a justice of the peace in accordance with the terms of the person's appointment, which are to be such as the Lord Chancellor may determine. Lord Chief Justice must assign each lay justice to one or more local justice areas, and may change an assignment so as to assign the lay justice to a different local justice area or to different local justice areas. The Lord Chief Justice must ensure that arrangements for the exercise, so far as affecting any local justice area, of the function under subsection (1) include arrangements for consulting persons appearing to the Lord Chief Justice to have special knowledge of matters relevant to the exercise of that function in relation to that area. The Lord Chancellor must ensure that arrangements for the exercise, so far as affecting any local justice area, of functions under subsection (2) include arrangements for consulting persons appearing to him to have special knowledge of matters relevant to the exercise of those functions in relation to that area. Every lay justice is, by virtue of his office, capable of acting as such in any local justice area (whether or not he is assigned to it); but he may do so only in accordance with arrangements made by Lord Chief Justice . Rules may make provision about the training courses to be completed before a person may exercise functions as a lay justice in any proceedings or class of proceedings specified in the rules. Subsection (3) is subject to section 12 (the supplemental list). The functions conferred on the Lord Chief Justice by subsections (2) and (3) may be exercised only after consulting the Lord Chancellor. The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a senior judge (as defined in section 109(5) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise functions of the Lord Chief Justice under subsection (1). The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise his functions under subsection (2), (2ZA) or (3). A lay justice may resign his office at any time. The Lord Chancellor may , with the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice, remove a lay justice from his office by an instrument on behalf and in the name of Her Majesty— on the ground of incapacity or misbehaviour, on the ground of a persistent failure to meet such standards of competence as are prescribed by a direction given by the Lord Chancellor with the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice , or if he is satisfied that the lay justice is declining or neglecting to take a proper part in the exercise of his functions as a justice of the peace. A list, to be known as “the supplemental list”, must be kept in the office of the Clerk of the Crown in Chancery. A lay justice whose name is entered in the supplemental list is not qualified as a justice of the peace to do any act or to be a member of a committee or other body. No act or appointment is invalidated by reason of the disqualification of a lay justice under subsection (2). Subject to subsection (3), the name of a lay justice who has reached 75 must be entered in the supplemental list. Where— proceedings are, or are expected to be, in progress on the day on which the lay justice reaches 75, and the lay justice is exercising functions in those proceedings as a justice of the peace, the Lord Chief Justice may, with the concurrence of the Lord Chancellor, direct that the name of the lay justice need not be entered in the supplemental list until the proceedings have ended. The name of a lay justice must be entered in the supplemental list if— he applies for it to be entered, and the application is approved by the Lord Chancellor. The Lord Chancellor may , with the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice, direct that the name of a lay justice is to be entered in the supplemental list on the ground of incapacity. The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise his functions under subsection (3). A person’s name must be removed from the supplemental list if he ceases to be a justice of the peace. A person’s name must be removed from the supplemental list if— his name is in the list as a result of section 13(4) or (5), and the Lord Chancellor , with the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice, directs its removal. A lay justice is entitled to payments by way of— travelling allowance, subsistence allowance, and financial loss allowance. Allowances under this section are to be paid by the Lord Chancellor at rates determined by him. A lay justice’s travelling allowance is an allowance in respect of expenditure— which is incurred by him on travelling, and which is necessarily incurred for the purpose of enabling him to perform his duties. A lay justice’s subsistence allowance is an allowance in respect of expenditure— which is incurred by him on subsistence, and A lay justice’s financial loss allowance is an allowance in respect of— any other expenditure incurred by reason of the performance of his duties, and any loss of earnings or social security benefits suffered by reason of the performance of his duties. A lay justice is not entitled to a payment under this section in respect of the performance of his duties if— a payment of a similar kind in respect of those duties may be made to him apart from this section, or entitlement to the payment is excluded by regulations made by the Lord Chancellor. For the purposes of this section the performance of a lay justice’s duties includes taking a training course provided by or on behalf of the Lord Chief Justice . The Lord Chancellor may by regulations make provision about the way in which this section is to be administered and may in particular make provision— prescribing sums (including tax credits) that are to be treated as social security benefits for the purposes of financial loss allowances, prescribing the particulars to be provided for claiming payment of allowances, and for avoiding duplication between payments under this section and under other arrangements where expenditure is incurred for more than one purpose. The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise his functions under subsection (7). The Lord Chancellor— must appoint a person to be keeper of the rolls for each local justice area, and may appoint the same person to be keeper of the rolls for more than one local justice area. The keeper of the rolls for a local justice area must be notified, in such manner as the Lord Chancellor may direct, of— any assignment of a lay justice to the area, any change in an assignment of a lay justice as a result of which he ceases to be assigned to the area, and the fact that a lay justice assigned to the area has ceased to be a justice of the peace or that his name has been entered in or removed from the supplemental list. The keeper of the rolls for a local justice area must ensure that an accurate record is maintained of all lay justices for the time being assigned to the area. The Lord Chancellor must consult the Lord Chief Justice before— appointing a person under subsection (1), or giving a direction under subsection (2). For each local justice area there is to be— a chairman of the lay justices assigned to the area, and one or more deputy chairmen of those lay justices, chosen by them from among their number. Rules may make provision— subject to subsection (3), as to the term of office of the chairman and deputy chairmen, and as to the number of deputy chairmen to be elected for any area. The Lord Chief Justice may, with the concurrence of the Lord Chancellor, authorise a lay justice to continue to hold office as chairman or deputy chairman for the purposes of specified proceedings which are, or are expected to be, in progress on the day on which the lay justice’s office would otherwise end. Any contested election for choosing the chairman or a deputy chairman is to be held by secret ballot. Rules may make provision for the purposes of this section and may in particular make provision— about the procedure for nominating candidates for election as a chairman or a deputy chairman; about the procedure at such an election. If the chairman for a local justice area is present at a sitting or other meeting of lay justices assigned to or acting in the area, he must preside. If, in the absence of the chairman, one or more of the deputy chairmen for a local justice area is present at a sitting or other meeting of lay justices assigned to or acting in that area he (or the most senior of them) must preside. Neither subsection (1) nor subsection (2) applies if, in accordance with rules, the chairman or (as the case may be) the deputy chairman asks another of the lay justices to preside. Subsections (1) and (2) do not confer on the chairman or a deputy chairman a right to preside in court if, under rules, he is ineligible to do so. Subsections (1) and (2) do not confer on the chairman or a deputy chairman a right to preside— in a youth court ..., at meetings of a committee or other body of justices of the peace which has its own chairman, or at sittings when a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) is engaged as such in administering justice. Rules may make provision for the purposes of subsections (3) and (4) and may in particular make provision— as to training courses to be completed by lay justices before they may preside in court, as to— the approval of lay justices, in accordance with the rules, before they may preside in court, the lay justices who may be so approved, and the courts to which the approval relates, and as to circumstances in which a lay justice may preside in court even though requirements imposed under paragraph (a) or (b) are not met in relation to him. Rules may also make provision— specifying the maximum number of lay justices who may sit to deal with a case as a magistrates' court, and as to the arrangements to be made for securing the presence on the bench of enough, but not more than enough, lay justices. Rules may (in addition to making provision under sections 10(4) and 18(6)) make provision for, or in connection with, the training, development and appraisal of lay justices. Such rules may make provision for committees, constituted in accordance with the rules, to have such functions as may be specified in the rules, including, in particular— providing advice and support to lay justices in connection with their functions as lay justices; identifying the training needs of lay justices; appraising lay justices and reporting on the results of appraisals; giving or withholding approval for the purposes of section 18; advising the Lord Chief Justice in relation to authorisations of lay justices as judges of the family court or as members of youth courts; granting or revoking such authorisations on behalf of the Lord Chief Justice . The Lord Chief Justice must ensure that training and training materials that appear to him, after consulting the Lord Chancellor, to be appropriate are provided for lay justices with a view to enabling them to comply with requirements as to training imposed by rules under section 10 or 18 or this section. In sections 10, 17, 18 and 19 “rules” means rules made by the Lord Chief Justice . Before making any rules for the purposes of section 10, 17, 18 or 19 the Lord Chief Justice must consult— the Lord Chancellor, the Criminal Procedure Rule Committee,and the Family Procedure Rule Committee, ... The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise his functions of making the rules referred to in this section. The Lord Chancellor and the Lord Chief Justice must take all reasonable and practicable steps— for ensuring that lay justices acting in a local justice area are kept informed of matters affecting them in the performance of their duties, and for ascertaining their views on such matters. Her Majesty may, on the recommendation of the Lord Chancellor, appoint a person who satisfies the judicial-appointment eligibility condition on a 5-year basis to be a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts). A District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) must, before acting as such, take the oath of allegiance and judicial oath in accordance with the Promissory Oaths Act 1868 (c. 72) and the Promissory Oaths Act 1871 (c. 48). The Lord Chancellor may pay to a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) such allowances as he may determine. Any such allowances are in addition to the salary charged on and paid out of the Consolidated Fund under section 9 of the Administration of Justice Act 1973 (c. 15). The Lord Chancellor may , with the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice, remove a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) from office on the ground of incapacity or misbehaviour. Her Majesty may designate one of the District Judges (Magistrates' Courts) to be Senior District Judge (Chief Magistrate), and if she does so, may designate another of them to be the deputy of the Senior District Judge (Chief Magistrate). The Lord Chief Justice may appoint a person who satisfies the judicial-appointment eligibility condition on a 5-year basis to be a Deputy District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) for such period as the Lord Chancellor considers appropriate (but subject to subsection (4)). A Deputy District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) must, before acting as such, take the oath of allegiance and judicial oath in accordance with the Promissory Oaths Act 1868 and the Promissory Oaths Act 1871. The Lord Chancellor may pay to a Deputy District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) such remuneration and allowances as he may determine. A person may be removed from office as a Deputy District Judge (Magistrates' Courts)— only by the Lord Chancellor with the agreement of the Lord Chief Justice, and only on— the ground of inability or misbehaviour, or a ground specified in the person's terms of appointment. Subject to subsection (4B), the period of a person's appointment under this section (including a period already extended under this subsection) must be extended by the Lord Chancellor before its expiry. Extension under subsection (4A)— requires the person's agreement, is to be for such period as the Lord Chancellor considers appropriate, and may be refused on— a ground specified in the person's terms of appointment, but only with any agreement of the Lord Chief Justice, or a nominee of the Lord Chief Justice, that may be required by those terms. Subject to the preceding provisions of this section (but subject in the first place to the Judicial Pensions and Retirement Act 1993), a person appointed under this section is to hold and vacate office as a Deputy District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) in accordance with the terms of the person's appointment, which are to be such as the Lord Chancellor may determine. The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a senior judge (as defined in section 109(5) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise the Lord Chief Justice's functions under subsection (1) or (4)(a). During the period of his appointment, a Deputy District Judge (Magistrates' Courts)— is to act as a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts), and is to be treated for all purposes (apart from appointment, tenure, remuneration, allowances and pensions) as if he were a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts). A District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) is by virtue of his office a justice of the peace for England and Wales. It is the duty of a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) to act as a justice of the peace in any local justice area in accordance with arrangements made by the Lord Chief Justice, after consulting the Lord Chancellor . The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise his functions under subsection (2). Nothing in the 1980 Act— requiring a magistrates' court to be composed of two or more justices, or limiting the powers of a magistrates' court when composed of a single justice, applies to a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts). A District Judge (Magistrates' Courts) may— do any act, and exercise alone any jurisdiction, which can be done or exercised by two justices, apart from granting or transferring a licence. Any enactment making provision ancillary to the jurisdiction exercisable by two justices of the peace also applies to the jurisdiction of a District Judge (Magistrates' Courts), unless the provision relates to granting or transferring a licence. “The 1980 Act” means the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (c. 43). The Lord Chief Justice may authorise a person— to give advice to justices of the peace about matters of law (including procedure and practice) on questions arising in connection with the discharge of their functions, including questions arising when the person is not personally attending on them, and to bring to the attention of justices of the peace, at any time when the person thinks appropriate, any point of law (including procedure and practice) that is or may be involved in any question so arising. For the purposes of subsection (1), the functions of justices of the peace do not include functions as a judge of the family court or the Crown Court. The Lord Chief Justice may authorise a person under subsection (1) only if the person— is appointed under section 2(1) of this Act or section 40(1) of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007, and has such qualifications as may be prescribed by regulations made by the Lord Chancellor with the agreement of the Lord Chief Justice. An authorisation under subsection (1)— may be subject to conditions, and may be varied or revoked by the Lord Chief Justice at any time. The Lord Chief Justice may nominate one or more of the following to exercise the Lord Chief Justice's functions under the preceding provisions of this section— a judicial office holder; a person appointed under section 2(1) of the Courts Act 2003 or section 40(1) of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007. A person nominated under subsection (5)(b) to exercise functions of the Lord Chief Justice is not subject to the direction of any person other than— the Lord Chief Justice, or a judicial office holder nominated by the Lord Chief Justice, when exercising the functions. In this section “judicial office holder” has the meaning given by section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005. The Lord Chief Justice may give directions to a person authorised to exercise functions under section 28(1). Apart from such directions, a person authorised to exercise functions under section 28(1) is not subject to the direction of the Lord Chancellor or any other person when exercising the functions. The Lord Chief Justice may nominate one or more of the following to exercise the Lord Chief Justice's functions under subsection (1)— a person appointed under section 2(1) of this Act or section 40(1) of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007. A person nominated under subsection (3)(b) to exercise functions of the Lord Chief Justice is not subject to the direction of any person other than— The Lord Chancellor may , after consulting the Lord Chief Justice, give directions as to the places in England and Wales at which magistrates' courts may sit. In exercising his powers under subsection (1), the Lord Chancellor shall have regard to the need to ensure that court-houses are accessible to persons resident in each local justice area. The Lord Chancellor may, with the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice, give directions as to the distribution and transfer of the general business of magistrates' courts between the places specified in directions under subsection (1). Directions under subsection (3) may, in particular, contain provision that, where a person is charged with an offence and is being required to appear before a magistrates' court, the place where he is required to appear is one of the places described in subsection (5). The places are— a place in the local justice area in which the offence is alleged to have been committed; a place in the local justice area in which the person charged with the offence resides; a place in the local justice area in which the witnesses, or the majority of the witnesses, reside; a place where other cases raising similar issues are being dealt with. The Lord Chancellor may , after consulting the Lord Chief Justice, give directions as to the days on which and times at which magistrates' courts may sit. Subject to any directions under subsection (7), the business of magistrates' courts may be conducted on any day and at any time. The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder (as defined in section 109(4) of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005) to exercise his functions under subsection (1) or (7). No action lies against a justice of the peace in respect of what he does or omits to do— in the execution of his duty as a justice of the peace, and in relation to a matter within his jurisdiction. An action lies against a justice of the peace in respect of what he does or omits to do— in the purported execution of his duty as a justice of the peace, but in relation to a matter not within his jurisdiction, if, but only if, it is proved that he acted in bad faith. If an action is brought in circumstances in which section 31 or 32 provides that no action lies, a judge of the court in which the action is brought may, on the application of the defendant, strike out the proceedings in the action. If a judge strikes out proceedings under subsection (1), he may if he thinks fit order the person bringing the action to pay costs. A court may not order a justice of the peace to pay costs in any proceedings in respect of what he does or omits to do in the execution (or purported execution) of his duty as a justice of the peace. But subsection (1) does not apply in relation to any proceedings in which a justice of the peace ...— is being tried for an offence or is appealing against a conviction, or is proved to have acted in bad faith in respect of the matters giving rise to the proceedings. A court which is prevented by subsection (1) from ordering a justice of the peace to pay costs in any proceedings may instead order the Lord Chancellor to make a payment in respect of the costs of a person in the proceedings. The Lord Chancellor may , after consulting the Lord Chief Justice, make regulations specifying— circumstances in which a court must or must not exercise the power conferred on it by subsection (4), and how the amount of any payment ordered under subsection (4) is to be determined. “Indemnifiable amounts”, in relation to a justice of the peace ..., means— costs which he reasonably incurs in or in connection with proceedings in respect of anything done or omitted to be done in the exercise (or purported exercise) of his duty as a justice of the peace ..., costs which he reasonably incurs in taking steps to dispute a claim which might be made in such proceedings, damages awarded against him or costs ordered to be paid by him in such proceedings, or sums payable by him in connection with a reasonable settlement of such proceedings or such a claim. Indemnifiable amounts relate to criminal matters if the duty mentioned in subsection (1)(a) relates to criminal matters. The Lord Chancellor must indemnify a justice of the peace ... in respect of— indemnifiable amounts which relate to criminal matters, unless it is proved, in respect of the matters giving rise to the proceedings or claim, that he acted in bad faith, and other indemnifiable amounts if, in respect of the matters giving rise to the proceedings or claim, he acted reasonably and in good faith. The Lord Chancellor may indemnify a justice of the peace ... in respect of other indemnifiable amounts unless it is proved, in respect of the matters giving rise to the proceedings or claim, that he acted in bad faith. Any question whether, or to what extent, a person is to be indemnified under this section is to be determined by the Lord Chancellor. The Lord Chancellor may, if the person claiming to be indemnified so requests, make a determination for the purposes of this section with respect to— costs such as are mentioned in subsection (1)(a) or (b), or sums such as are mentioned in subsection (1)(d), before the costs are incurred or the settlement in connection with which the sums are payable is made. But a determination under subsection (6) before costs are incurred— is subject to such limitations (if any) as the Lord Chancellor thinks proper and to the subsequent determination of the costs reasonably incurred, and does not affect any other determination which may fall to be made in connection with the proceedings or claim in question. Any reference in an enactment to a fines officer is to a person who is— appointed by the Lord Chancellor under section 2(1) or provided under a contract made by virtue of section 2(4), and designated as a fines officer by the Lord Chancellor. A function given by or under an enactment to a fines officer as such is to be taken for the purposes of section 2(5) (ban on contracting-out of judicial functions) as not involving the making of judicial decisions and as not involving the exercise of any judicial discretion. Any reference in an enactment to the designated officer, in relation to a magistrates' court, justice of the peace or local justice area, is to a person who is— designated by the Lord Chancellor in relation to that court, justice of the peace or area. In this section “magistrates' court” includes— a committee of justices, ... The following are to be paid to the Lord Chancellor— fines imposed by a magistrates' court, sums which— become payable by virtue of an order of a magistrates' court, and are by an enactment made applicable as fines (or any description of fines) imposed by a magistrates' court, and all other sums received by— a designated officer for a magistrates' court, or a designated officer for a local justice area, in his capacity as such. “Fine” includes— any pecuniary penalty, pecuniary forfeiture or pecuniary compensation payable under a conviction, and any pecuniary forfeiture on conviction by, or under any order of, a magistrates' court so far as the forfeiture is converted into or consists of money. For the purposes of this section anything done by the Crown Court on appeal from a magistrates' court is to be treated as done by the magistrates' court. Any sums received by the Lord Chancellor under this section are to be paid by him into the Consolidated Fund. Section 38(1) is subject to section 139 of the 1980 Act (sums paid on summary conviction applied for payment of compensation and costs). Paragraphs (a) and (b) of section 38(1) do not apply to sums which, by or under any enactment, are directed to be paid to— the Commissioners of Customs and Excise, or officers of, or persons appointed by, the Commissioners. Those paragraphs also do not apply to sums which, by or under any enactment, are directed— to be paid to or for the benefit of— the party aggrieved or injured or a person described in similar terms, or the family or relatives of a person described in any such terms or of a person dying in consequence of an act or event which constituted or was the occasion of an offence, to be applied in making good any default or repairing any damage or reimbursing any expenses (other than those of the prosecution), or to be paid to any person, if the enactment refers in terms to awarding or reimbursing a loss or to damages, compensation or satisfaction for loss, damage, injury or wrong. Paragraph (c) of section 38(1) does not apply to— sums to which a person other than the Lord Chancellor is by law entitled and which are paid to that person, or sums received by a designated officer on account of his salary or expenses as such. Any sum paid to the Lord Chancellor by virtue of paragraph (c) of section 38(1) is to be paid to him subject to being repaid to any person establishing his title to it. The Lord Chancellor may, with the concurrence of the Treasury, make regulations— as to the times at which, and the manner in which, a designated officer is to pay sums payable by him in his capacity as such to the Lord Chancellor or any other person, requiring the keeping of accounts by designated officers in respect of sums received by them, as to the production, inspection and audit of accounts required to be kept, and requiring designated officers to use— specified banking arrangements or facilities, or banking arrangements or facilities of a specified description, in relation to sums received by them. Regulations under this section may make different provision in relation to different descriptions of designated officer. A lay justice who is a member of a local authority may not act as a member of the Crown Court or a magistrates' court in proceedings brought by or against, or by way of an appeal from a decision of— that local authority, a committee or officer of that local authority, or if that local authority is operating executive arrangements (within the meaning of Part 2 of the Local Government Act 2000 (c. 22))— the executive of that local authority (within the meaning of that Part), or any person acting on behalf of that executive. A lay justice who is a member of the Common Council of the City of London may not act as a member of the Crown Court or a magistrates' court in proceedings brought by or against, or by way of an appeal from a decision of— the Corporation of the City, the Common Council, or a committee or officer of the Corporation or the Common Council.

The Lord Chancellor may by regulations make provision as to— training courses to be completed by court security officers; conditions to be met before a person may be designated as a court security officer. For the purposes of this Part a court security officer who is not readily identifiable as such (whether by means of his uniform or badge or otherwise), is not to be regarded as acting in the execution of his duty. A court security officer acting in the execution of his duty may search— any person who is in, or seeking to enter, a court building, and any article in the possession of such a person. Subsection (1) does not authorise the officer to require a person to remove any of his clothing other than a coat, jacket, headgear, gloves or footwear. In this Part “court building” means any building— where the business of any of the courts referred to in section 1 is carried on, and to which the public has access.

A court security officer acting in the execution of his duty may— restrain any person who is in a court building, or exclude or remove any person from a court building, or a part of a court building, if it is reasonably necessary to do so for one of the purposes given in subsection (3). The purposes are— enabling court business to be carried on without interference or delay; maintaining order; securing the safety of any person in the court building. A court security officer acting in the execution of his duty may remove any person from a courtroom at the request of a judge or a justice of the peace. The powers conferred by subsections (1), (2) and (4) include power to use reasonable force, where necessary. If a court security officer acting in the execution of his duty reasonably believes that an article in the possession of a person who is in, or seeking to enter, a court building ought to be surrendered on any of the grounds given in subsection (3), he must ask the person to surrender the article. If the person refuses to surrender the article, the officer may seize it. The grounds are that the article— may jeopardise the maintenance of order in the court building (or a part of it), may put the safety of any person in the court building at risk, or may be evidence of, or in relation to, an offence. This section applies where an order has been made under section 15A of the Juries Act 1974 (surrender of electronic communications devices by jurors) in respect of the members of a jury. A court security officer acting in the execution of the officer's duty must, if ordered to do so by a judge, search a member of the jury in order to determine whether the juror has failed to surrender an electronic communications device in accordance with the order. Subsection (2) does not authorise the officer to require a person to remove clothing other than a coat, jacket, headgear, gloves or footwear. If the search reveals a device which is required by the order to be surrendered— the officer must ask the juror to surrender the device, and if the juror refuses to do so, the officer may seize it. In this section, “electronic communications device” means a device that is designed or adapted for a use which consists of or includes the sending or receiving of signals that are transmitted by means of an electronic communications network (as defined in section 32 of the Communications Act 2003). Subject to subsection (2), a court security officer may retain an article which was— surrendered in response to a request under section 54(1), or seized under section 54(2), until the time when the person who surrendered it, or from whom it was seized, is leaving the court building.

surrendered in response to a request under section 54A(4)(a), or seized under section 54A(4)(b), until the end of the period specified in the relevant order under section 15A of the Juries Act 1974. If a court security officer reasonably believes that the article may be evidence of, or in relation to, an offence, he may retain it until— the time specified in subsection (1) or (1A) (as appropriate), or the end of the permitted period, whichever is later. “The permitted period” means such period, not exceeding 24 hours from the time the article was surrendered or seized, as will enable the court security officer to draw the article to the attention of a constable. This section is subject to section 55A. This section applies where a knife is surrendered to a court security officer in response to a request under section 54(1) or seized by a court security officer under section 54(2). Section 55 does not apply. The knife must be retained in accordance with regulations under subsection (5), unless returned or disposed of in accordance with those regulations or regulations made under section 56. If a court security officer reasonably believes that a retained knife may be evidence of, or in relation to, an offence, nothing in subsection (3) prevents the officer retaining the knife for so long as necessary to enable the court security officer to draw it to the attention of a constable. Without prejudice to the generality of section 56, the Lord Chancellor must by regulations make provision as to— the procedure to be followed when a knife is retained under this section; the making of requests by eligible persons for the return of knives so retained; the procedure to be followed when returning a knife pursuant to a request made in accordance with the regulations. For the purposes of this section— “ eligible person ”, in relation to a knife retained under this section, means— the person who has surrendered the knife under section 54(1) or from whom the knife has been seized under section 54(2), or any other person specified in regulations made under subsection (5); “ knife ” includes— a knife-blade, and any other article which— has a blade or is sharply pointed, and is made or adapted for use for causing injury to the person. the provision to persons— by whom articles have been surrendered in response to a request under section 54(1) or 54A(4)(a), or from whom articles have been seized under section 54(2) or 54A(4)(b), of written information about the powers of retention of court security officers, the keeping of records about articles which have been so surrendered or seized, the period for which unclaimed articles have to be kept, and the disposal of unclaimed articles at the end of that period. “Unclaimed article” means an article— which has been retained under section 55 or section 55A, which a person is entitled to have returned to him, which has not been returned, and whose return has not been requested by a person entitled to it. Any person who assaults a court security officer acting in the execution of his duty commits an offence. A person guilty of an offence under subsection (1) is liable on summary conviction to— a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale, or imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months, or to both. A person who resists or wilfully obstructs a court security officer acting in the execution of his duty commits an offence.

The Lord Chief Justice may nominate a judicial office holder to exercise the Lord Chief Justice's functions under this section. “Indemnifiable amounts”, in relation to an authorised person, means— costs which the person reasonably incurs in or in connection with proceedings in respect of anything done or omitted to be done in the exercise (or purported exercise) of the person's duty as an authorised person, costs which the person reasonably incurs in taking steps to dispute a claim which might be made in such proceedings, damages awarded against the person or costs ordered to be paid by the person in such proceedings, or sums payable by the person in connection with a reasonable settlement of such proceedings or such a claim.

Before appointing a person in accordance with subsection (1A), the Lord Chief Justice must consult the Lord Chancellor and the President of the Family Division. Before appointing a person in accordance with subsection (1B), the Lord Chancellor must consult the Lord Chief Justice and, if the person falls within any of paragraphs (h) to (m) of subsection (2), must also consult any body which— has members eligible for appointment under the provision in question, and is a relevant approved regulator in relation to the exercise of a right of audience or the conduct of litigation (or both). A person falling within subsection (2)(g) exercising a function as a member of the Family Procedure Rule Committee is not subject to the direction of the Lord Chancellor or any other person when exercising the function. The Lord Chancellor may reimburse the members of the Family Procedure Rule Committee their travelling and out-of-pocket expenses. In this section “relevant approved regulator” is to be construed in accordance with section 20(3) of the Legal Services Act 2007. The Lord Chancellor may by order— amend section 77(2) (persons to be appointed to Committee by Lord Chancellor or Lord Chief Justice), and make consequential amendments in any other provision of section 77. Before making an order under this section the Lord Chancellor must consult the President of the Family Division. The Family Procedure Rule Committee must, before making Family Procedure Rules— Rules made by the Family Procedure Rule Committee must be— The Lord Chancellor may allow or disallow rules so made. Rules so made, and allowed by the Lord Chancellor— . . . a statutory instrument containing Family Procedure Rules is subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament. This section applies if the Lord Chancellor gives the Family Procedure Rules Committee written notice that he thinks it is expedient for Family Procedure Rules to include provision that would achieve a purpose specified in the notice. made in accordance with section 79. The Lord Chancellor may , after consulting the Lord Chief Justice, by order amend, repeal or revoke any enactment to the extent that he considers necessary or desirable— in order to facilitate the making of Family Procedure Rules, or in consequence of section 75, 76 or 79 or Family Procedure Rules.

Directions as to the practice and procedure mentioned in subsection (1) which are given otherwise than under subsection (1) may not be given without the approval of— Directions as to the practice and procedure mentioned in subsection (1) (whether given under subsection (1) or otherwise) may provide for any matter which, by virtue of paragraph 3 of Schedule 1 to the Civil Procedure Act 1997, may be provided for by Civil Procedure Rules. to vary or revoke directions as to the practice and procedure mentioned in subsection (1), whether given under subsection (1) or otherwise, In this section— “Civil Procedure Rules” has the same meaning as in the Civil Procedure Act 1997; For section 1(3) of the 1997 Act (general objectives of Civil Procedure Rules) substitute— Any power to make or alter Civil Procedure Rules is to be exercised with a view to securing that— the system of civil justice is accessible, fair and efficient, and “The 1997 Act” means the Civil Procedure Act 1997 (c. 12). For section 2(1)(a) and (b) of the 1997 Act (ex officio members of the Committee) substitute— the Head of Civil Justice, the Deputy Head of Civil Justice (if there is one), the Master of the Rolls (unless he holds an office mentioned in paragraph (aa) or (ab)), and For section 2(2)(a) of the 1997 Act (one judge of the Senior Courts to be appointed to Committee) substitute— either two or three judges of the Supreme Court, For section 2(2)(g) and (h) of the 1997 Act (appointment of persons with experience etc. of lay advice sector and consumer affairs) substitute and two persons with experience in and knowledge of the lay advice sector or consumer affairs.

The power to make an order under this section is exercisable by statutory instrument. A statutory instrument containing such an order is subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament. Omit section 2(6) to (8) of the 1997 Act (process for making Civil Procedure Rules). For section 3 of the 1997 Act (section 2: supplementary) substitute— The Civil Procedure Rule Committee must, before making Civil Procedure Rules— Rules made by the Civil Procedure Rule Committee must be— The Lord Chancellor may allow, disallow or alter rules so made. Before altering rules so made the Lord Chancellor must consult the Committee. Rules so made, as allowed or altered by the Lord Chancellor— are to be contained in a statutory instrument to which the Statutory Instruments Act 1946 applies as if the instrument contained rules made by a Minister of the Crown. Subject to subsection (7), a statutory instrument containing Civil Procedure Rules is subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament. A statutory instrument containing rules altered by the Lord Chancellor is of no effect unless approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament before the day referred to in subsection (5)(a). This section applies (subject to subsections (12) and (13)) to proceedings in any court; and in this section “court” has the same meaning as in the Contempt of Court Act 1981 (see section 19 of that Act). If the proceedings are specified under subsection (8)(a), the court may direct that images or sounds of the proceedings are to be transmitted electronically for the purpose of enabling persons not taking part in the proceedings to watch or listen to the proceedings. A direction under subsection (2) may authorise only the following types of transmission— transmission to designated live-streaming premises, or transmission to which individuals are given access only having first identified themselves to the court (or to a person acting on behalf of the court). In subsection (3)(a), “designated live-streaming premises” means premises that are designated by the Lord Chancellor as premises that are made available for members of the public to watch or listen to proceedings in accordance with directions under subsection (2). A direction under subsection (2) may include further provision about— the manner of transmission, or the persons who are to be able to watch or listen to the transmission (including provision making that ability subject to conditions, or aimed at preventing persons who are not meant to watch or listen from being able to do so). If images or sounds of the proceedings are transmitted electronically (whether under a direction under subsection (2) or any other power), the court may direct that a recording of the transmission is to be made, in the manner specified in the direction, for the purpose of enabling the court to keep a record of the proceedings. A direction under subsection (2) or (6)— may relate to the whole, or to part, of the proceedings concerned, and may be varied or revoked. The Lord Chancellor may by regulations— specify proceedings (by reference to their type, the court in which they take place, or any other circumstance) in relation to which directions under subsection (2) may be made; specify matters of which the court must be satisfied before deciding to make such a direction; specify matters that the court must take into account when deciding whether, and on what terms, to make such a direction; require directions under subsection (2) to include certain provision under subsection (5). Before making regulations under subsection (8), the Lord Chancellor must determine whether the function of giving or withholding concurrence to the regulations would most appropriately be exercised by— the Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales, the Senior President of Tribunals, or both of them. Regulations under subsection (8) may be made only with the concurrence of the Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales, the Senior President of Tribunals, or both of them, as determined under subsection (9). Regulations under subsection (8) may make different provision for different purposes. This section does not apply to proceedings in the Supreme Court. This section does not apply to proceedings if provision regulating the procedure to be followed in those proceedings could be made by— an Act of the Scottish Parliament, an Act of Senedd Cymru (including one passed with the consent of a Minister of the Crown within the meaning of section 158(1) of the Government of Wales Act 2006), or an Act of the Northern Ireland Assembly passed without the consent of the Secretary of State. It is an offence for a person to make, or attempt to make— an unauthorised recording, or an unauthorised transmission, of an image or sound within subsection (2) or (3). An image or sound is within this subsection if it is an image or sound of court proceedings that is being transmitted to the place where the recording or transmission referred to in subsection (1) is made or attempted to be made. An image or sound is within this subsection if it is an image or sound of a person while that person is remotely attending court proceedings. A person is remotely attending court proceedings at any time when the person— is not in the same place as any member of the court, and is taking part in, watching or listening to the proceedings by way of a transmission. For the purposes of this section a recording or transmission is “unauthorised” unless it is— authorised (generally or specifically) by the court in which the proceedings concerned are being conducted, or authorised (generally or specifically) by the Lord Chancellor. It is a defence for a person charged with an offence under subsection (1) to prove that, at the time of the actual or attempted recording or transmission, the person— was not in designated live-streaming premises, and did not know that the image or sound concerned was of a sort within subsection (2) or (3). In subsection (6)(a), “designated live-streaming premises” has the meaning given by section 85A(4). A person guilty of an offence under subsection (1) is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. Conduct that amounts to an offence under subsection (1) is also a contempt of court. But a person cannot, in respect of the same conduct, be both convicted of the offence and punished for the contempt. For the purposes of this section it does not matter whether a person making, or attempting to make, a recording or transmission intends the recording or transmission, or anything comprised in it, to be seen or heard by any other person. This section does not apply to court proceedings if provision regulating the procedure to be followed in those proceedings could be made by— “court” has the same meaning as in the Contempt of Court Act 1981 (see section 19 of that Act); “court proceedings” means proceedings in any court; “recording” means a recording on any medium— of a single image, a moving image or any sound, or from which a single image, a moving image or any sound may be produced or reproduced; “transmission” means any transmission by electronic means of a single image, a moving image or any sound (and “transmitted” is to be construed accordingly). “civil proceedings” means— proceedings in the county court, proceedings in the High Court, other than— proceedings in the Family Division of the High Court which are business assigned, by or under section 61 of (and Schedule 1 to) the Senior Courts Act 1981, to that Division of the High Court and no other, and proceedings in the exercise of its jurisdiction under the Extradition Act 2003, and proceedings in the civil division of the Court of Appeal arising out of civil proceedings within paragraph (a) or (b); “witness”, in relation to any proceedings, includes a party to the proceedings. In civil proceedings, no party to the proceedings who has been convicted of, or given a caution for, a specified offence may cross-examine in person a witness who is the victim of that offence. In civil proceedings, no party to the proceedings who is the victim of a specified offence may cross-examine in person a witness who has been convicted of, or given a caution for, that offence. Subsections (1) and (2) do not apply to a conviction or caution that is spent for the purposes of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974, unless evidence in relation to the conviction or caution is admissible in, or may be required in, the proceedings by virtue of section 7(2), (3) or (4) of that Act. Cross-examination in breach of subsection (1) or (2) does not affect the validity of a decision of the court in the proceedings if the court was not aware of the conviction or caution when the cross-examination took place. “caution” means— in the case of England and Wales— a conditional caution given under section 22 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003, a youth conditional caution given under section 66A of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998, or any other caution given to a person in England and Wales in respect of an offence which, at the time the caution is given, the person has admitted; in the case of Scotland, anything corresponding to a caution falling within paragraph (a) (however described) which is given to a person in respect of an offence under the law of Scotland; in the case of Northern Ireland— a conditional caution given under section 71 of the Justice Act (Northern Ireland) 2011, or any other caution given to a person in Northern Ireland in respect of an offence which, at the time the caution is given, the person has admitted; “conviction” means— a conviction by or before a court in England and Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland; a conviction in service disciplinary proceedings (in England and Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, or elsewhere), including— in the case of proceedings in respect of a service offence, anything that under section 376(1) and (2) of the Armed Forces Act 2006 (which relates to summary hearings and the Summary Appeal Court) is to be treated as a conviction for the purposes of that Act, and in the case of any other service disciplinary proceedings, a finding of guilt in those proceedings; a finding in any criminal proceedings (including a finding linked with a finding of insanity) that the person concerned has committed an offence or done the act or made the omission charged; and “convicted” is to be read accordingly; “service disciplinary proceedings” means— any proceedings (whether or not before a court) in respect of a service offence (except proceedings before a civilian court within the meaning of the Armed Forces Act 2006); any proceedings under the Army Act 1955, the Air Force Act 1955, or the Naval Discipline Act 1957 (whether before a court-martial or before any other court or person authorised under any of those Acts to award a punishment in respect of an offence); any proceedings before a Standing Civilian Court established under the Armed Forces Act 1976; “service offence” means— a service offence within the meaning of the Armed Forces Act 2006, or an SDA offence within the meaning of the Armed Forces Act 2006 (Transitional Provisions etc) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/1059); “specified offence” means an offence which is specified, or of a description specified, in regulations made by the Lord Chancellor. The following provisions (which deem a conviction of a person discharged not to be a conviction) do not apply for the purposes of this section to a conviction of a person for an offence in respect of which an order has been made discharging the person absolutely or conditionally— section 14 of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000; section 82 of the Sentencing Code; section 187 of the Armed Forces Act 2006 or any corresponding earlier enactment. For the purposes of this section “offence” includes an offence under a law that is no longer in force. In civil proceedings, no party to the proceedings against whom an on-notice protective injunction is in force may cross-examine in person a witness who is protected by the injunction. In civil proceedings, no party to the proceedings who is protected by an on-notice protective injunction may cross-examine in person a witness against whom the injunction is in force. Cross-examination in breach of subsection (1) or (2) does not affect the validity of a decision of the court in the proceedings if the court was not aware of the protective injunction when the cross-examination took place. In this section “protective injunction” means an order, injunction or interdict specified, or of a description specified, in regulations made by the Lord Chancellor. For the purposes of this section, a protective injunction is an “on-notice” protective injunction if— the court is satisfied that there has been a hearing at which the person against whom the protective injunction is in force asked, or could have asked, for the injunction to be set aside or varied, or the protective injunction was made at a hearing of which the court is satisfied that both the person who applied for it and the person against whom it is in force had notice. In civil proceedings, where specified evidence is adduced that a person who is a witness has been the victim of domestic abuse carried out by a party to the proceedings, that party to the proceedings may not cross-examine the witness in person. In civil proceedings, where specified evidence is adduced that a person who is a party to the proceedings has been the victim of domestic abuse carried out by a witness, that party may not cross-examine the witness in person. “domestic abuse” has the meaning given by section 1 of the Domestic Abuse Act 2021; “specified evidence” means evidence specified, or of a description specified, in regulations made by the Lord Chancellor. Regulations under subsection (3) may provide that any evidence which satisfies the court that domestic abuse, or domestic abuse of a specified description, has occurred is specified evidence for the purposes of this section. In civil proceedings, the court may give a direction prohibiting a party to the proceedings from cross-examining (or continuing to cross-examine) a witness in person if— none of sections 85F to 85H operates to prevent the party from cross-examining the witness, and it appears to the court that— the quality condition or the significant distress condition is met, and it would not be contrary to the interests of justice to give the direction. The “quality condition” is met if the quality of evidence given by the witness on cross-examination— is likely to be diminished if the cross-examination (or continued cross-examination) is conducted by the party in person, and would be likely to be improved if a direction were given under this section. The “significant distress condition” is met if— the cross-examination (or continued cross-examination) of the witness by the party in person would be likely to cause significant distress to the witness or the party, and that distress is likely to be more significant than would be the case if the witness were cross-examined other than by the party in person. A direction under this section may be made by the court— on an application made by a party to the proceedings, or of its own motion.

In determining whether the quality condition or the significant distress condition is met in the case of a witness or party, the court must have regard to, among other things— any views expressed by the witness as to whether or not the witness is content to be cross-examined by the party in person; any views expressed by the party as to whether or not the party is content to cross-examine the witness in person; the nature of the questions likely to be asked, having regard to the issues in the proceedings; any charge of which the court is aware in respect of a specified offence alleged to have been committed by the party in relation to the witness; any charge of which the court is aware in respect of a specified offence alleged to have been committed by the witness in relation to the party; any behaviour by the party in relation to the witness in respect of which the court is aware that a finding of fact has been made in the proceedings or in any other proceedings; any behaviour by the witness in relation to the party in respect of which the court is aware that a finding of fact has been made in the proceedings or in any other proceedings; any behaviour by the party at any stage of the proceedings, both generally and in relation to the witness; any behaviour by the witness at any stage of the proceedings, both generally and in relation to the party; any relationship (of whatever nature) between the witness and the party. In subsection (5)(d) and (e) “specified offence” means an offence that is a specified offence for the purposes of section 85F. Any reference in this section to the quality of a witness's evidence is to its quality in terms of completeness, coherence and accuracy. For this purpose “coherence” refers to a witness's ability in giving evidence to give answers which— address the questions put to the witness, and can be understood, both individually and collectively. A direction under section 85I has binding effect from the time it is made until the witness in relation to whom it applies is discharged. But the court may revoke a direction under section 85I before the witness is discharged, if it appears to the court to be in the interests of justice to do so, either— The court may revoke a direction under section 85I on an application made by a party to the proceedings only if there has been a material change of circumstances since— the direction was given, or if a previous application has been made by a party to the proceedings, the application (or the last application) was determined. The court must state its reasons for— giving a direction under section 85I; refusing an application for a direction under section 85I; revoking a direction under section 85I; refusing an application for the revocation of a direction under section 85I. This section applies where a party to civil proceedings is prevented from cross-examining a witness in person by virtue of any of sections 85F to 85I. The court must consider whether (ignoring this section) there is a satisfactory alternative means— for the witness to be cross-examined in the proceedings, or of obtaining evidence that the witness might have given under cross-examination in the proceedings. If the court decides that there is not, the court must— invite the party to the proceedings to arrange for a qualified legal representative to act for the party for the purpose of cross-examining the witness, and require the party to the proceedings to notify the court, by the end of a period specified by the court, of whether a qualified legal representative is to act for the party for that purpose. Subsection (5) applies if, by the end of the period specified under subsection (3)(b), either— the party has notified the court that no qualified legal representative is to act for the party for the purpose of cross-examining the witness, or no notification has been received by the court and it appears to the court that no qualified legal representative is to act for the party for the purpose of cross-examining the witness. The court must consider whether it is necessary in the interests of justice for the witness to be cross-examined by a qualified legal representative appointed by the court to represent the interests of the party. If the court decides that it is, the court must appoint a qualified legal representative (chosen by the court) to cross-examine the witness in the interests of the party. A qualified legal representative appointed by the court under subsection (6) is not responsible to the party. a reference to cross-examination includes a reference to continuing to conduct cross-examination; “qualified legal representative” means a person who, for the purposes of the Legal Services Act 2007, is an authorised person in relation to an activity which constitutes the exercise of a right of audience (within the meaning of that Act) in civil proceedings. The Lord Chancellor may by regulations make provision for the payment out of central funds of sums in respect of— fees or costs properly incurred by a qualified legal representative appointed under section 85K(6), and expenses properly incurred in providing such a person with evidence or other material in connection with the appointment. The regulations may provide for sums payable under subsection (1) to be determined by the Lord Chancellor or such other person as the regulations may specify. The regulations may provide for sums payable under subsection (1)— to be such amounts as are specified in the regulations; to be calculated in accordance with— a rate or scale specified in the regulations, or other provision made by or under the regulations. The Lord Chancellor may issue guidance in connection with the role which a qualified legal representative appointed under section 85K(6) in connection with any civil proceedings is to play in the proceedings, including (among other things) guidance about the effect of section 85K(7). A qualified legal representative appointed under section 85K(6) must have regard to any guidance issued under this section. The Lord Chancellor may from time to time revise any guidance issued under this section. The Lord Chancellor must publish— any guidance issued under this section, and any revisions of that guidance. Regulations under this Part may make different provision for different purposes. An application under section 76(3) of the 1981 Act (application for variation of place fixed for Crown Court trial) is no longer required to be heard in open court by a judge of the High Court; and accordingly section 76(4) of the 1981 Act ceases to have effect. A person who is a defendant in proceedings in a criminal court must provide his or her name, date of birth and nationality if required to do so at any stage of proceedings by the court. Criminal Procedure Rules must specify the stages of proceedings at which requirements are to be imposed by virtue of subsection (1) (and may specify other stages of proceedings when such requirements may be imposed). A person commits an offence if, without reasonable excuse, the person fails to comply with a requirement imposed by virtue of subsection (1), whether by providing false or incomplete information or by providing no information. Information provided by a person in response to a requirement imposed by virtue of subsection (1) is not admissible in evidence in criminal proceedings against that person other than proceedings for an offence under this section. A person guilty of an offence under subsection (3) is liable on summary conviction to either or both of the following— imprisonment for a term not exceeding 51 weeks (or 6 months if the offence was committed before the commencement of section 281(5) of the Criminal Justice Act 2003), or a fine. The criminal court before which a person is required to provide his or her name, date of birth and nationality may deal with any suspected offence under subsection (3) at the same time as dealing with the offence for which the person was already before the court. In this section a “criminal court” is, when dealing with any criminal cause or matter— In section 31 of the 1968 Act (powers of the Court of Appeal under Part 1 of that Act exercisable by single judge), in subsection (2), after paragraph (h) insert— to make orders under section 23(1)(a). In section 31A of the 1968 Act (powers of Court of Appeal under Part 1 of that Act exercisable by registrar), in subsection (2), after paragraph (c) insert— After section 31A of the 1968 Act insert— The power of the Court of Appeal to determine an application for procedural directions may be exercised by— a single judge, or the registrar. “Procedural directions” means directions for the efficient and effective preparation of— an application for leave to appeal, or an appeal, to which this section applies. A single judge may give such procedural directions as he thinks fit— when acting under subsection (1); on a reference from the registrar; of his own motion, when he is exercising, or considering whether to exercise, any power of his in relation to the application or appeal. The registrar may give such procedural directions as he thinks fit— of his own motion. This section applies to an appeal, and an application to the Court of Appeal for leave to appeal, under— this Part, section 9 of the Criminal Justice Act 1987, or section 35 of the Criminal Procedure and Investigations Act 1996. Subsection (2) applies if a single judge gives, or refuses to give, procedural directions. The Court of Appeal may, on an application to it under subsection (5)— confirm, set aside or vary any procedural directions given by the single judge, and give such procedural directions as it thinks fit. Subsection (4) applies if the registrar gives, or refuses to give, procedural directions. A single judge may, on an application to him under subsection (5)— confirm, set aside or vary any procedural directions given by the registrar, and give such procedural directions as he thinks fit. An application under this subsection may be made by— an appellant; a respondent, if the directions— relate to an application for leave to appeal and appear to need the respondent’s assistance to give effect to them, relate to an application for leave to appeal which is to be determined by the Court of Appeal, or relate to an appeal. “appellant” includes a person who has given notice of application for leave to appeal under any of the provisions mentioned in section 31B(5); “respondent” includes a person who will be a respondent if leave to appeal is granted. Sections 31B to 31C of the 1968 Act apply to— applications for leave to appeal falling to be determined on or after the date on which this section comes into force, and appeals in relation to which— a certificate under Part 1 of the 1968 Act that the case is fit for appeal, or leave to appeal, is granted on or after that date. “The 1968 Act” means the Criminal Appeal Act 1968 (c. 19). Amend section 2 of the Administration of Justice Act 1960 (c. 65) (applications for leave to appeal to Supreme Court) as follows. In subsection (1)— for “fourteen” (in both places) substitute “ 28 ”, and for “date of the decision of that court” substitute “ relevant date ”. After subsection (1) insert— In subsection (1), “the relevant date” means— the date of the decision of the court below, or if later, the date on which that court gives reasons for its decision. Amend section 34 of the 1968 Act (applications for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court) as follows. for “date of the decision of the Court of Appeal” substitute “ relevant date ”. the date of the Court of Appeal’s decision, or if later, the date on which the Court of Appeal gives reasons for its decision. In section 92 of the 1981 Act (tenure of offices in Senior Courts)— in subsection (2) (offices with retirement age of 70, but with possibility of extensions to not beyond 75), omit “except the office of Queen’s Coroner and Attorney and Master of the Crown Office and Registrar of Criminal Appeals”, omit subsections (2D) and (2E) (retirement age of 62 for that office), and in subsection (4) (offices to which subsection (1), (2A) or (2D) applies to be held during good behaviour), for “to which subsection (1), (2A) or (2D) applies” substitute “ listed in column 1 of Part 1 or 2 of Schedule 2 ”. In Schedule 5 to the Judicial Pensions and Retirement Act 1993 (c. 8) (retirement), after the entry relating to a Deputy or temporary Master, Queen’s Bench Division, insert— “Queen’s Coroner and Attorney and Master of the Crown Office and Registrar of Criminal Appeals ”. In section 36 of the Courts-Martial (Appeals) Act 1968 (c. 20) (powers of the Appeal Court under Part 2 of that Act exercisable by single judge), in subsection (1), after paragraph (g) insert— to make orders under section 28(1)(a). In section 36A of that Act (powers of the Appeal Court under Part 2 of that Act exercisable by registrar), in subsection (1), at the end of paragraph (b) insert and— After section 36A of that Act insert— The power of the Appeal Court to determine an application for procedural directions may be exercised by— a judge of the Appeal Court, or under this Part. A judge of the Appeal Court may give such procedural directions as he thinks fit— Subsection (2) applies if a judge of the Appeal Court gives, or refuses to give, procedural directions.

Amend section 40 of the Courts-Martial (Appeals) Act 1968 (c. 20) (applications for leave to appeal to Supreme Court) as follows. for “date of the decision of the Appeal Court” substitute “ relevant date ”. the date of the Appeal Court’s decision, or if later, the date on which the Appeal Court gives reasons for its decision. The Lord Chancellor may with the consent of the Treasury by order prescribe fees payable in respect of anything dealt with by— the Senior Courts, the family court, the county court, and magistrates' courts. An order under this section may, in particular, contain provision as to— scales or rates of fees; exemptions from or reductions in fees; remission of fees in whole or in part. When including any provision in an order under this section, the Lord Chancellor must have regard to the principle that access to the courts must not be denied.

Before making an order under this section, the Lord Chancellor must consult— the Lord Chief Justice; the Master of the Rolls; the President of the Queen's Bench Division; the President of the Family Division; the Head of Civil Justice; the Deputy Head of Civil Justice (if there is one). Before making an order under this section in relation to civil proceedings, the Lord Chancellor must consult the Civil Justice Council. The Lord Chancellor must take such steps as are reasonably practicable to bring information about fees to the attention of persons likely to have to pay them. Fees payable under this section are recoverable summarily as a civil debt. Subsection (10) applies in relation to an authority which has power to prescribe fees payable in any of the courts referred to in subsection (1). Nothing in this section prevents the authority from applying to any extent provisions contained in an order made under this section; and an instrument made in exercise of the power is to be read (unless the contrary intention appears) as applying those provisions as amended from time to time. After section 19A of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 (c. 23) insert— The Lord Chancellor may by regulations make provision empowering magistrates' courts, the Crown Court and the Court of Appeal to make a third party costs order if the condition in subsection (3) is satisfied. A “third party costs order” is an order as to the payment of costs incurred by a party to criminal proceedings by a person who is not a party to those proceedings (“the third party”). The condition is that— there has been serious misconduct (whether or not constituting a contempt of court) by the third party, and the court considers it appropriate, having regard to that misconduct, to make a third party costs order against him. Regulations made under this section may, in particular— specify types of misconduct in respect of which a third party costs order may not be made; allow the making of a third party costs order at any time; make provision for any other order as to costs which has been made in respect of the proceedings to be varied on, or taken account of in, the making of a third party costs order; make provision for account to be taken of any third party costs order in the making of any other order as to costs in respect of the proceedings. Regulations made under this section in relation to magistrates' courts must provide that the third party may appeal to the Crown Court against a third party costs order made by a magistrates' court. Regulations made under this section in relation to the Crown Court must provide that the third party may appeal to the Court of Appeal against a third party costs order made by the Crown Court. Amend the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (c. 29) as follows.

Such rules may in particular make provision for regulating matters relating to the costs of those proceedings, including prescribing scales of costs to be paid to legal or other representatives. The court shall have full power to determine by whom and to what extent the costs are to be paid. In any proceedings mentioned in subsection (4), the court may— disallow, or (as the case may be) order the legal or other representative concerned to meet, the whole of any wasted costs or such part of them as may be determined in accordance with rules under section 91. In subsection (7) “wasted costs” means any costs incurred by a party— as a result of any improper, unreasonable or negligent act or omission on the part of any legal or other representative or any employee of such a representative, or which, in the light of any such act or omission occurring after they were incurred, the court considers it is unreasonable to expect that party to pay. “Legal or other representative”, in relation to a party to proceedings means any person exercising a right of audience or right to conduct litigation on his behalf. Subsection (2) applies in relation to proceedings on appeals in respect of offences committed or alleged to have been committed on or after 24th March 2003.

In section 128(5) of the 2000 Act (fixing of fines: power of court to make determination of financial circumstances where offender has failed to co-operate with court etc.), in paragraph (b) before sub-paragraph (i) insert— has failed to furnish a statement of his financial circumstances in response to a request which is an official request for the purposes of section 20A of the Criminal Justice Act 1991 (offence of making false statements as to financial circumstances), “The 2000 Act” means the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 (c. 6). Amend section 24 of the Criminal Justice Act 1991 (power to make regulations about recovery of fines etc. by deductions from income support) as follows. In subsection (2), after paragraph (a) insert— provision that the court may require the offender to provide prescribed information in connection with an application; After subsection (2) insert— An offender who fails to provide information required by the court by virtue of subsection (2)(aa) commits an offence. An offender commits an offence if, in providing information required by the court by virtue of that subsection, he— makes a statement which he knows to be false in a material particular, recklessly provides a statement which is false in a material particular, or knowingly fails to disclose any material fact. A person guilty of an offence under subsection (2A) or (2B) is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. Schedule 5 contains provisions about the collection of fines. Schedule 6 contains provisions about the discharge of fines by means of unpaid work.

The Schedule is to have effect only in accordance with— subsections (5) and (6) (pilot schemes), or subsections (7) to (9) (power to make pilot schemes, or modified versions of pilot schemes, permanent after completion of pilots). The Lord Chancellor may by order provide that the Schedule is to have effect in relation to the local justice area or areas specified in the order for the period specified in the order. An order under subsection (5) may make provision modifying the Schedule, or any enactment in connection with the operation of the Schedule, in relation to the specified local justice area or areas and the specified period. The Lord Chancellor may, at the end of the relevant period, by order provide that the Schedule is to have effect— in all local justice areas, and indefinitely. “The relevant period” means— if one order has been made under subsection (5) in relation to the Schedule, the period specified in the order; if more than one order has been made under subsection (5) in relation to the Schedule, the period which, out of the periods so specified, ends at the latest date. An order under subsection (7) may make such amendments of— the Schedule, and any other enactments, as appear to the Lord Chancellor appropriate in the light of the operation of the Schedule in accordance with the order made under subsection (5) (pilot schemes).

The Lord Chancellor may fix charges to be made for— making information in an entry in the register available for inspection; carrying out an official search of the register; supplying a certified copy of information in an entry in the register. The proceeds of those charges are to be applied in paying the expenses incurred in maintaining the register; and any surplus is to be paid into the Consolidated Fund. If there is in force an agreement between the Lord Chancellor and a body corporate relating to the keeping by that body corporate of the register the register is to be kept by that body corporate. If, under subsection (6), the register is kept by a body corporate— the Lord Chancellor may recover from the body corporate any expenses incurred by the Lord Chancellor in connection with the supply of information to that body for the purposes of the register, subsection (4) applies as if it enabled the Lord Chancellor to fix the maximum charges to be made (instead of the charges to be made), and subsection (5) does not apply. If subsection (6) ceases to apply to a body corporate as a result of the termination (for any reason) of the agreement, the Lord Chancellor may require the information contained in the entries in the register to be transferred to such person as he may direct. Schedule 7 contains provisions about High Court writs of execution and about warrants issued in connection with the compulsory acquisition of land .

A court awarding other damages in respect of personal injury may, if the parties consent, order that the damages are wholly or partly to take the form of periodical payments. A court may not make an order for periodical payments unless satisfied that the continuity of payment under the order is reasonably secure. For the purpose of subsection (3) the continuity of payment under an order is reasonably secure if— it is protected by a guarantee given under section 6 of or the Schedule to this Act, it is protected by a scheme under section 213 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (compensation) (whether or not as modified by section 4 of this Act), or the source of payment is a government or health service body. An order for periodical payments may include provision— requiring the party responsible for the payments to use a method (selected or to be selected by him) under which the continuity of payment is reasonably secure by virtue of subsection (4); about how the payments are to be made, if not by a method under which the continuity of payment is reasonably secure by virtue of subsection (4); requiring the party responsible for the payments to take specified action to secure continuity of payment, where continuity is not reasonably secure by virtue of subsection (4); enabling a party to apply for a variation of provision included under paragraph (a), (b) or (c). Where a person has a right to receive payments under an order for periodical payments, or where an arrangement is entered into in satisfaction of an order which gives a person a right to receive periodical payments, that person’s right under the order or arrangement may not be assigned or charged without the approval of the court which made the order; and— a court shall not approve an assignment or charge unless satisfied that special circumstances make it necessary, and a purported assignment or charge, or agreement to assign or charge, is void unless approved by the court. Where an order is made for periodical payments, an alteration of the method by which the payments are made shall be treated as a breach of the order (whether or not the method was specified under subsection (5)(b)) unless— the court which made the order declares its satisfaction that the continuity of payment under the new method is reasonably secure, the new method is protected by a guarantee given under section 6 of or the Schedule to this Act, the new method is protected by a scheme under section 213 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (compensation) (whether or not as modified by section 4 of this Act), or the source of payment under the new method is a government or health service body. An order for periodical payments shall be treated as providing for the amount of payments to vary by reference to the retail prices index (within the meaning of section 833(2) of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988) at such times, and in such a manner, as may be determined by or in accordance with Civil Procedure Rules. But an order for periodical payments may include provision— disapplying subsection (8), or modifying the effect of subsection (8). Civil Procedure Rules may require a court to take specified matters into account in considering— whether to order periodical payments; the security of the continuity of payment; whether to approve an assignment or charge. For the purposes of section 2(4)(c) and (7)(d) “government or health service body” means a body designated as a government body or a health service body by order made by the Lord Chancellor.

Section 2 is without prejudice to any power exercisable apart from that section. The Lord Chancellor may by order enable a court which has made an order for periodical payments to vary the order in specified circumstances (otherwise than in accordance with section 2(5)(d)). The Lord Chancellor may by order enable a court in specified circumstances to vary the terms on which a claim or action for damages for personal injury is settled by agreement between the parties if the agreement— provides for periodical payments, and expressly permits a party to apply to a court for variation in those circumstances. An order under this section may make provision— which operates wholly or partly by reference to a condition or other term of the court’s order or of the agreement; about the nature of an order which may be made by a court on a variation; about the matters to be taken into account on considering variation; of a kind that could be made by Civil Procedure Rules or, in relation to Northern Ireland, rules of court (and which may be expressed to be with or without prejudice to the power to make those rules).

An order under this section shall be subject to any order under section 1 of the Courts and Legal Services Act 1990 (allocation between High Court and county courts).

The protection provided by the scheme shall extend by virtue of this section to the whole of the payments. Subsection (4) applies where— one person (“the claimant”) has a right to receive periodical payments from another person (“the defendant”), a third person (“the insurer”) is required by or in pursuance of an arrangement entered into with the defendant (whether or not together with other persons and whether before or after the creation of the claimant’s right) to make payments in satisfaction of the claimant’s right or for the purpose of enabling it to be satisfied, and the claimant’s right to receive the payments would be wholly or partly protected by a scheme under section 213 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 if it arose from an arrangement of the same kind as that mentioned in paragraph (b) but made between the claimant and the insurer. For the purposes of the scheme under section 213 of that Act— the claimant shall be treated as having a right to receive the payments from the insurer under an arrangement of the same kind as that mentioned in subsection (3)(b), the protection under the scheme in respect of those payments shall extend by virtue of this section to the whole of the payments, and no person other than the claimant shall be entitled to protection under the scheme in respect of the payments. In this section “periodical payments” means periodical payments made pursuant to— an order of a court in so far as it is made in reliance on section 2 above (including an order as varied), or an agreement in so far as it settles a claim or action for damages in respect of personal injury (including an agreement as varied).

Where an individual who has a right to receive periodical payments becomes bankrupt— the payments shall be treated for the purposes of the bankruptcy as income of the bankrupt (but without prejudice to section 731 of the Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005(c. 1)), neither the right to receive periodical payments, nor any property or arrangement designed to protect continuity of the periodical payments, shall form part of the bankrupt’s estate for the purposes of the Insolvency Act 1986 (c. 45) or the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 1989 (S.I. 1989/2405 (N.I. 19)), an income payments order may not be made in respect of any part of the periodical payments identified (in the order or agreement under which the payments are made) as relating wholly to expenditure likely to be incurred by or for the individual as a result of the personal injury concerned, nothing in section 2 of the Damages Act 1996 (c. 48) shall prevent a court from making an income payments order (subject to paragraph (c)), and nothing in section 2 of that Act shall prevent entry into an income payments agreement. “bankrupt” has the meaning given by section 381 of the Insolvency Act 1986 or Article 9 of the Insolvency (Northern Ireland) Order 1989 (S.I. 1989/2405 (N.I. 19)), “income payments agreement” means an agreement under section 310A of that Act or equivalent legislation for Northern Ireland, “income payments order” means an order under section 310 of that Act or equivalent legislation for Northern Ireland, and “periodical payments” means periodical payments awarded or agreed, or in so far as awarded or agreed, as damages for future pecuniary loss by— an order of a court made in reliance on section 2 of the Damages Act 1996 (including an order as varied), or an agreement settling a claim or action for damages in respect of personal injury (including an agreement as varied). subsections (1) to (3) shall extend to the whole of the United Kingdom, and subsections (4) and (5) shall extend only to England and Wales and Northern Ireland. alter the name of any of the offices of the Court of Judicature of Northern Ireland or of the county courts or magistrates' courts in Northern Ireland which are listed in subsection (2); County court judge Deputy judge of the county court Deputy resident magistrate District Judge Judge of the Court of Appeal Master (Bankruptcy) Master (Care and Protection) Master (Chancery) Master (Enforcement of Judgments) Master (High Court) Master (Probate and Matrimonial) Master (Queen’s Bench and Appeals) Master (Taxing Office) Presiding judge for the county courts Presiding resident magistrate Puisne judge of the High Court.

The persons are— an authority which is a responsible authority for the purposes of the Justices of the Peace Act 1997; the Receiver for the Metropolitan Police District; the council of an outer London borough; the Common Council of the City of London; a police authority established under section 3 of the Police Act 1996; a local probation board; any other body which acts under any enactment or instrument for public purposes and not for its own profit. Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (b) of sub-paragraph (1), any property, rights or liabilities are to be treated as falling within that paragraph if the Lord Chancellor issues a certificate to that effect. In this Schedule “property transfer scheme” means a scheme under sub-paragraph (1). In this Part of this Schedule “the appointed day” means— in the case of the transfer of property, rights or liabilities to which magistrates' courts committees are entitled or subject, the day immediately before the abolition day; in any other case, the day specified in the scheme. On the day which is the appointed day in relation to property, rights or liabilities to which provisions of a property transfer scheme apply, the property, rights and liabilities are transferred and vest in accordance with those provisions. In this Schedule “the abolition day” means the day appointed under section 110(1) for the coming into force of section 6(1) (abolition of magistrates' courts committees). A property transfer scheme may not transfer rights or liabilities under a contract of employment, except where the rights or liabilities— are those to which a magistrates' courts committee is entitled or subject, and relate to a person whose contract of employment was terminated before the appointed day. A property transfer scheme may provide for the creation of rights, or the imposition of liabilities, in relation to property transferred by the scheme. A property transfer scheme may provide for the apportionment or division of any property, rights or liabilities. A property transfer scheme may— specify property, rights or liabilities to be transferred under or in accordance with the scheme, or provide for property, rights or liabilities to be transferred to be determined in accordance with the scheme. A property transfer scheme has effect in relation to the property, rights and liabilities to which it applies despite any provision (of whatever nature) which would otherwise prevent, penalise or restrict the transfer of any of the property, rights and liabilities. A right of pre-emption, right of reverter or other similar right is not to operate or become exercisable as a result of a transfer under a property transfer scheme. In the case of such a transfer, any such right has effect as if the transferee were the same person in law as the transferor and as if the transfer had not taken place. Such compensation as is just is to be paid to a third party in respect of any right which would, apart from paragraph 4, have operated in favour of, or become exercisable by, him but which, in consequence of the operation of that paragraph, cannot subsequently operate in his favour or become exercisable by him. Any compensation payable by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) is to be paid by the transferor, by the transferee or by both. A property transfer scheme may provide for the determination of any disputes as to— whether, and (if so) how much, compensation is payable by virtue of sub-paragraph (1), and the person to whom or by whom it is to be paid. “Third party” means a person other than the transferor or the transferee. Paragraphs 4 and 5 apply in relation to the creation of rights in relation to property as they apply in relation to a transfer of property; and references to the transferor and the transferee are to be read accordingly. A certificate issued by the Lord Chancellor that any property, rights or liabilities have, or have not, been transferred under or in accordance with a property transfer scheme is conclusive evidence of the transfer, or of the fact that there has not been a transfer. Stamp duty is not chargeable in respect of a transfer or grant effected under or in accordance with a property transfer scheme. No instrument made or executed for the purposes of such a transfer or grant is to be treated as duly stamped unless— it has, in accordance with section 12 of the Stamp Act 1891, been stamped with a particular stamp denoting that it is not chargeable with that duty or that it is duly stamped, or it is stamped with the duty to which it would be liable, apart from this paragraph. A property transfer scheme may make such supplemental, consequential or transitional provision for the purposes of, or in connection with, a transfer made by the scheme as the Lord Chancellor considers appropriate. In this Part of this Schedule— “TUPE” means the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 1981 (S.I. 1981/1794), “the appointed day” means the day immediately before the abolition day, references to a responsible authority are to an authority which is a responsible authority under the Justices of the Peace Act 1997, references to a responsible authority’s relevant functions are to its functions under that Act, and references to a transferred employee are to an employee transferred to the Lord Chancellor’s employment by virtue of paragraph 11 or 12. For the purposes of TUPE— the functions of each magistrates' courts committee are to be treated as transferred on the appointed day from the committee to the Lord Chancellor, and each such transfer is to be treated as the transfer of an undertaking. the relevant functions of each responsible authority are to be treated as transferred on the appointed day from the authority to the Lord Chancellor, each such transfer is to be treated as the transfer of an undertaking, and each person falling within sub-paragraph (2) (but no other person) is to be treated as employed in the undertaking immediately before the appointed day. A person falls within this sub-paragraph if— immediately before the appointed day he is employed by the responsible authority under a contract of employment, he spends a substantial part of his time on duties connected with the relevant functions of the authority, and the Lord Chancellor certifies that in his opinion it is expedient that the person be transferred to the Lord Chancellor’s employment. Where TUPE applies by virtue of this paragraph, it applies as if regulation 5(4B) were omitted. A reference in any enactment to a person appointed under section 2(1) includes a transferred employee. Nothing in— section 3 of the Act of Settlement, section 6 of the Aliens Restriction (Amendment) Act 1919, or any rules prescribing requirements as to nationality which must be satisfied in the case of persons employed in a civil capacity under the Crown, applies to the employment of a transferred employee by the Lord Chancellor following his transfer by virtue of paragraph 11 or 12. The Lord Chancellor may, to the extent he thinks fit, compensate a responsible authority in respect of costs incurred by the authority as a result of this Act in respect of a person who— immediately before the appointed day is employed by the authority under a contract of employment, and spends part of his time on duties connected with the relevant functions of the authority, but who is not transferred to the Lord Chancellor’s employment by virtue of paragraph 12. The Lord Chancellor may by regulations provide that any petty sessional court-house or other accommodation specified in the regulations which immediately before the abolition day was being provided by— the council of an outer London borough, or the Common Council of the City of London, pursuant to regulations made under paragraph 35 of Schedule 14 to the Access to Justice Act 1999 shall on and after that day be provided by that council to the Lord Chancellor for the performance of his functions under section 3. Regulations under sub-paragraph (1) may— prescribe terms and conditions, including conditions as to payment, on which any court-house or other accommodation is to be provided, and prohibit a council providing a court-house or other accommodation under sub-paragraph (1) from altering or extending it without the consent of the Lord Chancellor. It is the duty of each magistrates' courts committee, and each person falling within paragraph 1(2) to provide the Lord Chancellor with such information or assistance as he may reasonably require for the purposes of, or in connection with— the exercise of any powers exercisable by him in relation to a property transfer scheme, or Part 2 of this Schedule. After section 8 of the 1980 Act, insert— For the purposes of this section a hearing is a pre-trial hearing if— it relates to an information— which is to be tried summarily, and to which the accused has pleaded not guilty, and it takes place before the start of the trial. For the purposes of subsection (1)(b), the start of a summary trial occurs when the court begins— to hear evidence from the prosecution at the trial, or to consider whether to exercise its power under section 37(3) of the Mental Health Act 1983 (power to make hospital order without convicting the accused). At a pre-trial hearing, a magistrates' court may make a ruling as to any matter mentioned in subsection (4) if— the condition in subsection (5) is met, the court has given the parties an opportunity to be heard, and it appears to the court that it is in the interests of justice to make the ruling. The matters are— any question as to the admissibility of evidence; any other question of law relating to the case. The condition is that, if the accused is not legally represented, the court must— ask whether he wishes to be granted a right to representation funded by the Legal Services Commission as part of the Criminal Defence Service, and if he does, decide whether or not to grant him that right. A ruling may be made under this section— on an application by a party to the case, or of the court’s own motion. For the purposes of this section and section 8B, references to the prosecutor are to any person acting as prosecutor, whether an individual or body. Subject to subsections (3) and (6), a ruling under section 8A has binding effect from the time it is made until the case against the accused or, if there is more than one, against each of them, is disposed of. The case against an accused is disposed of if— he is acquitted or convicted, the prosecutor decides not to proceed with the case against him, or the information is dismissed. A magistrates' court may discharge or vary (or further vary) a ruling under section 8A if— the condition in section 8A(5) is met, it appears to the court that it is in the interests of justice to do so. The court may act under subsection (3)— No application may be made under subsection (4)(a) unless there has been a material change of circumstances since the ruling was made or, if a previous application has been made, since the application (or last application) was made. A ruling under section 8A is discharged in relation to an accused if— the magistrates' court commits or sends him to the Crown Court for trial for the offence charged in the information, or a count charging him with the offence is included in an indictment by virtue of section 40 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988. Except as provided by this section no report of matters falling within subsection (2) may be published in England and Wales. The following matters fall within this subsection— a ruling under section 8A; proceedings on an application for a ruling under section 8A; an order under section 8B that a ruling under section 8A be discharged, varied or further varied; proceedings on an application under section 8B for a ruling under section 8A to be discharged, varied or further varied. A magistrates' court dealing with any matter falling within subsection (2) may order that subsection (1) does not apply, or does not apply to a specified extent, to a report of the matter. Where there is only one accused and he objects to the making of an order under subsection (3)— the court may make the order if (and only if) satisfied after hearing the representations of the accused that it is in the interests of justice to do so, and if the order is made, it shall not apply to the extent that a report deals with any such objection or representations. Where there are two or more accused and one or more of them objects to the making of an order under subsection (3)— the court may make the order if (and only if) satisfied after hearing the representations of each of the accused that it is in the interests of justice to do so, and Subsection (1) does not apply to the publication of a report of matters after the case against the accused or, if more than one, against each of them, is disposed of. Subsection (1) does not apply to a report which contains only one or more of the following matters— the identity of the court and the names of the justices; the names, ages, home addresses and occupations of the accused and witnesses; the offence or offences, or a summary of them, with which the accused or any of the accused are charged; the names of counsel and solicitors in the proceedings; where the proceedings are adjourned, the date and place to which they are adjourned; any arrangements as to bail; whether a right to representation funded by the Legal Services Commission as part of the Criminal Defence Service was granted to the accused or any of the accused. The addresses that may be included in a report by virtue of subsection (7) are addresses— at any relevant time, and at the time of their inclusion in the publication. In subsection (8), “relevant time” means a time when events giving rise to the charges to which the proceedings relate are alleged to have occurred. Nothing in this section affects any prohibition or restriction imposed by virtue of any other enactment on the publication of a report of any matter. In this section and in section 8D— references to publication of a report of matters falling within subsection (2)— include references to inclusion of those matters in any speech, writing, relevant programme or other communication in whatever form which is addressed to the public at large or any section of the public (and for this purpose every relevant programme is to be taken to be so addressed), but do not include references to inclusion of those matters in a document prepared for use in particular legal proceedings; “relevant programme” means a programme included in a programme service, within the meaning of the Broadcasting Act 1990. If a report is published in contravention of section 8C each of the following persons is guilty of an offence— in the case of a publication of a report as part of a newspaper or periodical, any proprietor, editor or publisher of the newspaper or periodical; in the case of the inclusion of a report in a relevant programme, any body corporate which is engaged in providing the service in which the programme is included and any person having functions in relation to the programme corresponding to those of an editor of a newspaper; in the case of any other publication, any person publishing it. If an offence under this section committed by a body corporate is proved— to have been committed with the consent or connivance of, or to be attributable to any neglect on the part of, an officer, the officer as well as the body corporate is guilty of the offence and liable to be proceeded against and punished accordingly.

This Schedule, apart from Part 3B, applies if a person aged 18 or over (“P”) is liable to pay a sum which is or is treated for the purposes of Part 3 of the 1980 Act as a sum adjudged to be paid by a conviction of a magistrates' court. Part 3B applies in a case where Chapter 1 of Part 1 of the Justice Act (Northern Ireland) 2016 (collection of fines etc.) applies. A sum payable under a notice of conviction and penalty (within the meaning of section 16L of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980) is not to be regarded as a sum within sub-paragraph (1); but this Schedule applies in relation to such sums as provided in paragraphs 10A, 21(2), 25(2), 29(2) and 37(1A). For the purposes of this Schedule as it applies as mentioned in paragraph 1(2), “the fines officer” means any fines officer. In this Schedule “the sum due” means the sum adjudged to be paid as mentioned in paragraph 1(1), or (in a case where this Schedule applies as mentioned in paragraph 1(2)) the sum payable under a notice of conviction and penalty. For the purposes of this Schedule— a “fine” does not include any pecuniary forfeiture or pecuniary compensation payable on conviction; and “a sum required to be paid by a compensation order” means any sum required to be paid by an order made under section 130(1) of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 or Chapter 2 of Part 7 of the Sentencing Code ; ... “a sum required to be paid by an unlawful profit order” means any sum required to be paid by an order made under section 4 of the Prevention of Social Housing Fraud Act 2013 “a sum required to be paid by a slavery and trafficking reparation order” means any sum required to be paid by an order made under section 8 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. For the purposes of this Schedule, P is an existing defaulter if it is shown that— the sum due or any other sum is registered for enforcement against him as a fine under— section 71 of the Road Traffic Offenders Act 1988, section 9 of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001, or any other enactment specified in fines collection regulations, he is in default on a collection order in respect of another sum falling within paragraph 1(1), he is in default in payment of another sum falling within paragraph 1(1) but in respect of which no collection order has been made , or the person is in default on a notice of conviction and penalty (within the meaning of section 16L of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980). For the purposes of this Schedule, P’s existing default can be disregarded only if he shows that there was an adequate reason for it. Sub-paragraph (2) is subject to sub-paragraph (4). Where a sum is registered for enforcement against P as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1)(b), P’s existing default is not one which can be disregarded for the purposes of the following provisions of this Schedule. “Collection order” means an order made under Part 4 of this Schedule. This Part applies if the court which is imposing the liability to pay the sum due concludes— that P should be required to pay the sum due immediately, and that he is not an existing defaulter or, if he is, that his existing default (or defaults) can be disregarded. The court must make an order— stating its conclusions on the matters referred to in paragraph 4(b), stating the amount of the sum due, the amount of the fine and the amount of any other part of the sum due, and informing P of the effect of paragraph 6. P is allowed a discount on the fine if the sum due, less the amount of the discount, is paid in accordance with the terms of the order. The amount of the discount is to be determined in accordance with fines collection regulations, but must not be greater than 50% of the fine. The discount is given effect by extinguishing P’s liability to pay the part of the sum due that is equal to the amount of the discount. This Part does not apply where the court is hearing P's case following an appeal under paragraph 23, 32 or , 37(9) or 37A(4). In the following provisions of this Part, “the relevant court” means— the court which is imposing the liability to pay the sum due, or . . . the magistrates' court responsible for enforcing payment of the sum due. an attachment of earnings order, or an application for benefit deductions, is an order or application to secure the payment of the whole of the sum due. This paragraph applies if the sum due consists of or includes a sum required to be paid by a compensation order, an unlawful profit order or a slavery and trafficking reparation order. The relevant court must make an attachment of earnings order if it appears to the court— that P is in employment, and that it is not impracticable or inappropriate to make the order. The relevant court must make an application for benefit deductions if it appears to the court— that P is entitled to a relevant benefit, and that it is not impracticable or inappropriate to make the application. If it appears to the court that (apart from this sub-paragraph) both sub-paragraph (2) and sub-paragraph (3) would apply, the court must make either an attachment of earnings order or an application for benefit deductions. This paragraph applies if— paragraph 7A does not apply, and the relevant court concludes that P is an existing defaulter and that his existing default (or defaults) cannot be disregarded. The court must make an attachment of earnings order if it appears to the court— The court must make an application for benefit deductions if it appears to the court— the relevant court concludes that P is not an existing defaulter or, if he is, that his existing default (or defaults) can be disregarded. The court may make— if P consents. The Secretary of State or a Northern Ireland department, or a person providing services to the Secretary of State or a Northern Ireland department, may disclose social security information to a relevant person. Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs, or a person providing services to the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs, may disclose finances information to a relevant person. The disclosure authorised by sub-paragraph (1) or (1A) is disclosure of the information concerned for the purpose of facilitating the making, by the relevant court or a fines officer, of any of the following— a decision as to whether to make an attachment of earnings order in respect of P, a decision as to whether to make an application for benefit deductions in respect of P, and such an order or application. In this paragraph— “finances information” means information which— is about a person's income, gains or capital, and is held— by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs, or by a person providing services to the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs in connection with the provision of those services, or information which is held with information so held; “social security information” means information which is held for the purposes of functions relating to social security— by the Secretary of State or a Northern Ireland Department, or by a person providing services to the Secretary of State, or a Northern Ireland Department, in connection with the provision of those services, or information which is held with information so held. The reference in sub-paragraph (2) to functions relating to social security includes a reference to functions relating to any of the matters listed in section 127(8) of the Welfare Reform Act 2012 (statutory payments and maternity allowances). In this paragraph “relevant person” means a person who is appointed by the Lord Chancellor under section 2(1) or provided under a contract made by virtue of section 2(4). A person to whom information is disclosed under paragraph 9A, or this sub-paragraph, may disclose the information to any person to whom its disclosure is necessary or expedient in connection with facilitating the making , by the relevant court or a fines officer, of such a decision, order or application as is mentioned in paragraph 9A(1B). A person to whom such information is disclosed commits an offence if the person— discloses or uses the information, and the disclosure is not authorised by sub-paragraph (1) or (as the case may be) the use is not for the purpose of facilitating the making of such a decision , order or application as is mentioned in paragraph 9A(1B). But it is not an offence under sub-paragraph (2)— to disclose any information in accordance with any enactment or order of a court or of a tribunal established by or under an Act or for the purposes of any proceedings before a court; or to disclose or use— any information which is in the form of a summary or collection of information so framed as not to enable information relating to any particular person to be ascertained from it, or any information which has previously been lawfully disclosed to the public. It is a defence for a person charged with an offence under sub-paragraph (2) to prove that the person reasonably believed that the disclosure or use was lawful. A person guilty of an offence under sub-paragraph (2) is liable— on conviction on indictment— to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 2 years, or to a fine, or to both; on summary conviction— to imprisonment for a term not exceeding the general limit in a magistrates’ court, or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum, or to both. Sub-paragraph (5)(b) applies in relation to offences committed before 2 May 2022 (general limit on power of magistrates' courts to impose imprisonment) as if the reference to the general limit in a magistrates’ court were a reference to 6 months. A prosecution for an offence under sub-paragraph (2) may be instituted only by or with the consent of the Director of Public Prosecutions. Sub-paragraphs (3) and (3A) apply for the purposes of paragraphs 9A and 9B. “Information” means information held in any form. Relevant court” has the same meaning as in Part 3 of this Schedule. In paragraphs 9A and 10 (as in the provisions of this Schedule which extend to England and Wales only)— “fines officer” has the meaning given by section 36; “P” has the meaning given by paragraph 1. Nothing in paragraph 9A or 9B authorises the making of a disclosure which contravenes the data protection legislation. In this paragraph, “the data protection legislation” has the same meaning as in the Data Protection Act 2018 (see section 3 of that Act). In this Schedule— “relevant benefit” means a benefit from which the Secretary of State may make deductions by virtue of section 24 of the Criminal Justice Act 1991 (recovery of fines etc. by deductions from universal credit and income support etc.), and “application for benefit deductions”, in relation to a relevant benefit, means an application to the Secretary of State asking him to deduct sums from any amounts payable to P by way of the benefit. This Part of this Schedule applies to a person who has been given a notice of conviction and penalty (within the meaning of section 16L of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980) as it applies to P. Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs, or a person providing services to the Commissioners for Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs, may disclose finances information to a court in Northern Ireland or a collection officer for the purpose of— facilitating a decision by the court or officer whether or not to make an attachment of earnings order, or facilitating the making of an attachment of earnings order by the court or officer. In sub-paragraph (1), “finances information” means information— which is about a person’s income, gains or capital and is held by— Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs, or a person providing services to the Commissioners for Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs in connection with the provision of those services, or which is held with information of the description given in paragraph (a). A person to whom information is disclosed under this paragraph commits an offence if the person— discloses the information to another person, or uses the information for a purpose other than a purpose referred to in sub-paragraph (1). It is not an offence under sub-paragraph (3)— to disclose any information in accordance with a statutory provision or an order of a court or of a tribunal established by or under a statutory provision or for the purposes of any proceedings before a court, to disclose or use any information which is in the form of a summary or collection of information so framed as not to enable information relating to any particular person to be ascertained from it, or to disclose or use any information which has previously been lawfully disclosed to the public. It is a defence for a person charged with an offence under sub-paragraph (3) to prove that the person reasonably believed that the disclosure or use was lawful. A person guilty of an offence under sub-paragraph (3) is liable— on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum; on conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years or to a fine or both. Nothing in this paragraph authorises the making of a disclosure which contravenes the data protection legislation. “attachment of earnings order” and “collection officer” each have the same meaning as in Chapter 1 of Part 1 of the Justice Act (Northern Ireland) 2016 (see section 27(1) of that Act); “the data protection legislation” has the same meaning as in the Data Protection Act 2018 (see section 3 of that Act); “information” means information held in any form; “statutory provision” has the same meaning as in the Interpretation Act (Northern Ireland) 1954 (see section 1(f) of that Act). This Part applies whether or not the relevant court has made an attachment of earnings order or an application for benefit deductions under Part 3 of this Schedule. In this Part “the relevant court” has the same meaning as in Part 3 of this Schedule. The relevant court must make an order (“a collection order”) relating to the payment of the sum due, unless it appears to the court that it is impracticable or inappropriate to make the order. If P is subject to a collection order, the powers of any court to deal with P’s liability to pay the sum due are subject to the provisions of this Schedule and to fines collection regulations. The collection order must— state the amount of the sum due, where that sum consists of or includes a fine, a sum required to be paid by a compensation order, a sum required to be paid by an unlawful profit order or a sum required to be paid by a slavery and trafficking reparation order, state— the amount of the fine, the amount required to be paid by the compensation order , the amount required to be paid by the unlawful profit order or the amount required to be paid by the slavery and trafficking reparation order (or, where that sum consists of or includes two or more of those amounts, each of those amounts), the amount of any other part of the sum due, state the court’s conclusions as to whether P is an existing defaulter and if so whether the existing default (or defaults) can be disregarded, if the court has made an attachment of earnings order or an application for benefit deductions, state that fact, specify the fines office to which the order is allocated, and contain information about the effect of the order. In this Schedule “the fines officer”, in relation to P and a collection order, means any fines officer working at the fines office specified in the collection order. If the relevant court has not under Part 3 made an attachment of earnings order or an application for benefit deductions, the collection order must state the payment terms. “The payment terms” means— a term requiring P to pay the sum due within a specified period, or terms requiring P to pay the sum due by instalments of specified amounts on or before specified dates. If the court has under Part 3 of this Schedule made an attachment of earnings order or an application for benefit deductions, the collection order must state the reserve terms. “The reserve terms” means terms of a description mentioned in paragraph 14(2) but which (subject to paragraphs 31, 32 . . . and 39) are to have effect if the attachment of earnings order or application for benefit deductions fails. For the purposes of this Schedule, an attachment of earnings order fails if— P’s employer fails to comply with the order, or the order is discharged at a time when P remains liable to pay any part of the sum due. For the purposes of this Schedule, an application for benefit deductions fails if— the application is withdrawn, the Secretary of State decides not to make deductions, an appeal against a decision of the Secretary of State to make deductions succeeds, or the Secretary of State ceases to make deductions at a time when P remains liable to pay any part of the sum due. This Part applies if— a collection order has been made in respect of the sum due, and the order states that P is not an existing defaulter or, if he is, that his existing default (or defaults) can be disregarded. P is allowed a discount on the fine if the sum due, less the amount of the discount, is paid without P at any time having been in default on the order. The amount of the discount is to be determined in accordance with fines collection regulations but must not be greater than 50% of the fine. For the purposes of this Schedule, P is in default on a collection order if he fails to pay any amount due under the payment terms (or, if they have effect, the reserve terms) on or before the date on which it is required to be paid. the court has made a collection order, and the order contains payment terms but does not contain reserve terms. This Part also applies if a person (“P”) has been given a notice of conviction and penalty (within the meaning of section 16L of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980). In the application of this Part in such a case— “collection order” means the notice of conviction and penalty; a reference to the collection order being made is a reference to the notice of conviction and penalty being given; “payment terms” means the requirements as to the time and manner of payment imposed under section 16L(2)(c) of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980. P may at any time apply to the fines officer under this paragraph for — the payment terms to be varied, or an attachment of earnings order or application for benefit deductions to be made. No application may be made under sub-paragraph (2)(a) unless— there has been a material change in P’s circumstances since the collection order was made (or the payment terms were last varied under this paragraph), or P is making further information about his circumstances available. On an application under sub-paragraph (2)(a), the fines officer may decide— to vary the payment terms ..., or not to vary them. The fines officer may not vary the payment terms under sub-paragraph (4)(a) so that they are less favourable to P without P's consent. On an application under sub-paragraph (2)(b), the fines officer may decide— to make an attachment of earnings order or application for benefit deductions, or not to do so. If he decides to make an order or application he must vary the collection order so that it states reserve terms. The fines officer may not vary the order so that it states reserve terms which are less favourable to P than the payment terms without P's consent. A decision of the fines officer under this paragraph must be in writing, dated and delivered to P. Subject to paragraph 23, the effect of— a decision under sub-paragraph (4)(a), and a variation under sub-paragraph (6), is that the collection order has effect as varied by the fines officer. P may, within 10 working days from the date of a decision under paragraph 22, appeal to the magistrates' court against the decision. On an appeal under this paragraph the magistrates' court may— confirm or vary the payment terms (or the reserve terms), if the appeal is against a decision on an application under paragraph 22(2)(b) or if P consents, make an attachment of earnings order or an application for benefit deductions, or discharge the collection order and exercise any of its standard powers in respect of persons liable to pay fines. If the court makes an attachment of earnings order or an application for benefit deductions, it must vary the collection order so that it states reserve terms. A power to vary the payment terms of a collection order includes power to— substitute terms requiring P to pay by specified instalments on or before specified dates for a term requiring P to pay within a specified period, or substitute a term requiring P to pay within a specified period for terms requiring P to pay the sum due by specified instalments on or before specified dates. Subject to sub-paragraph (1), a power to vary the payment terms of a collection order under which the sum due is required to be paid within a specified period is a power to vary the date on or before which the sum due is to be paid. Subject to sub-paragraph (1), a power to vary the payment terms of a collection order under which the sum due is required to be paid by specified instalments on or before specified dates is a power to vary— the number of instalments payable; the amount of any instalment; the date on or before which any instalment is required to be paid. This paragraph applies in relation to the variation of the reserve terms as it applies in relation to the payment terms. This Part applies on the first occasion on which P is in default on a collection order containing payment terms and none of the following is pending— an application to a fines officer under paragraph 22 (application for variation of order or for attachment of earnings order etc) that was made at a time when P was not in default on the collection order; an appeal under paragraph 23 against a decision of a fines officer on an application described in paragraph (a); a reference under paragraph 42 (power of fines officer to refer case to magistrates' court). This Part also applies on the first occasion on which a person (“P”) is in default on a notice of conviction and penalty (within the meaning of section 16L of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980). The fines officer must make an attachment of earnings order if it appears to him— The fines officer must make an application for benefit deductions if it appears to him— If it appears to the fines officer that (apart from this sub-paragraph) both sub-paragraph (1) and sub-paragraph (2) would apply, he must make either an attachment of earnings order or an application for benefit deductions. a collection order contains reserve terms, and the attachment of earnings order or application for benefit deductions made under Part 3 or 6 fails. This Part also applies if (through the application of Part 6 by virtue of paragraph 21(2))— a notice of conviction and penalty (within the meaning of section 16L of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980) contains reserve terms, and the attachment of earnings order or application for benefit deductions made under Part 6 fails. The fines officer must deliver to P a notice (“a payment notice”) informing P— that the order or application has failed and the reserve terms have effect, what P has to do to comply with the reserve terms, and of his right to make applications under paragraph 31. P may, at any time after the date of a payment notice under paragraph 30, apply to the fines officer for the reserve terms to be varied. No application may be made under sub-paragraph (1) unless— there has been a material change in P’s circumstances since the reserve terms were set (or last varied under this paragraph), or On such an application being made, the fines officer may decide— to vary the reserve terms ..., or The fines officer may not vary the reserve terms under sub-paragraph (3)(a) so that they are less favourable to P without P's consent. Subject to paragraph 32, the effect of a decision under sub-paragraph (3)(a) is that the collection order has effect with the reserve terms varied in the way decided by the fines officer. P may, within 10 working days from the date of a decision under paragraph 31(3), appeal to the magistrates' court against the decision. confirm or vary the reserve terms, or discharge the order and exercise any of its standard powers in respect of persons liable to pay fines or other sums . P is in default on a collection order, paragraph 26 does not apply, and none of the following is pending— an application to a fines officer under paragraph 31 (application for variation of reserve terms) that was made at a time when P was not in default on the collection order; an appeal under paragraph 32 against a decision of a fines officer on an application described in sub-paragraph (i); This paragraph also applies if— a person (“P”) is in default on a notice of conviction and penalty (within the meaning of section 16L of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980), and paragraph 26 does not apply. The fines officer must— refer P’s case to the magistrates' court, or deliver to P a notice (a “further steps notice”) that he intends to take one or more of the steps listed in paragraph 38. Any steps that the fines officer wishes to be able to take must be specified in the notice. A further steps notice must be in writing and dated. P may, within 10 working days from the date of the further steps notice, appeal to the magistrates' court against it.

the fines officer has delivered to P a notice (“the current notice”) that is— a further steps notice that has not been replaced by a notice under this paragraph, or a notice under this paragraph that has not been replaced by a further notice under this paragraph, P remains liable to pay any part of the sum due, and the fines officer wishes to be able to take one or more steps listed in paragraph 38 but not specified in the current notice. The fines officer may deliver to P a notice replacing the current notice. A notice under this paragraph (a “replacement notice”) must— state that the fines officer intends to take one or more of the steps listed in paragraph 38, specify the steps that the fines officer wishes to be able to take, and be in writing and dated. P may, within 10 working days from the date of a replacement notice, appeal to the magistrates' court against it. If a step is being taken in reliance on a notice at the time when the notice is replaced by a replacement notice, the taking of the step may continue despite the replacement. The steps referred to in paragraphs 37(6)(b), 37A(3)(a) and 39(3) and (4) (powers to take further steps) are— issuing a warrant of control for the purpose of recovering the sum due; registering the sum in the register of judgments and orders required to be kept by section 98; making an attachment of earnings order or an application for benefit deductions; subject to sub-paragraph (3), making a clamping order; taking proceedings by virtue of section 87(1) of the 1980 Act (enforcement of payment of fines by High Court and county court). A clamping order is an order— that a motor vehicle be fitted with an immobilisation device (“clamped”), and which complies with any requirements that are imposed by fines collection regulations under paragraph 46 with respect to the making of clamping orders. A clamping order must not be made except in relation to a vehicle which is registered under the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994 in P’s name. This paragraph applies if the magistrates' court is hearing P’s case following— a referral under paragraph 37(6)(a) (functions of fines officer in relation to defaulters), or an appeal under paragraph 37(9) or 37A(4) (appeal against a further steps notice or replacement notice ). On a referral falling within sub-paragraph (1)(b) , the court may— vary the payment terms (or the reserve terms); take any of the steps listed in paragraph 38; On an appeal against a further steps notice or replacement notice , the court may— confirm or quash the notice; vary the notice so as to specify any step listed in paragraph 38; If— P does not appeal within 10 working days against a further steps notice or replacement notice, or he does so but the further steps notice or replacement notice is confirmed or varied, any step specified in the notice (or the notice as varied) may be taken and retaken. This paragraph applies if, in taking a step specified in a further steps notice or replacement notice, the fines officer has issued a warrant of control for the purpose of recovering the sum due. The fines officer may withdraw the warrant if— the fines officer is satisfied that the warrant was issued by mistake, including in particular a mistake made in consequence of the non-disclosure or misrepresentation of a material fact. in taking a step specified in a further steps notice or replacement notice, the fines officer has issued a warrant of control for the purpose of recovering the sum due, and the fines officer subsequently refers P's case to the magistrates' court under paragraph 42. The magistrates' court may discharge the warrant if— the power conferred by section 142(1) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 (power of magistrates' court to re-open cases to rectify mistakes etc ) would have been exercisable by the court if the court had issued the warrant. This paragraph applies if condition A or B is met. Condition A is that the fines officer has withdrawn a warrant of control under paragraph 40A. Condition B is that— in taking a step specified in a further steps notice or replacement notice, the fines officer has issued a warrant of control for the purpose of recovering the sum due, the fines officer has referred P's case to the magistrates' court under paragraph 42, the magistrates' court has discharged the warrant of control under paragraph 40B(2), and the magistrates' court has not discharged the collection order or exercised any of its powers under paragraph 42(2). If P remains liable to pay any part of the sum due, the fines officer must— take (or retake) one or more of the steps specified in the further steps notice or replacement notice that was the last notice to be delivered to P under paragraph 37 or 37A before the warrant of control was issued, or deliver to P a replacement notice and take one or more of the steps specified in that notice, or refer P's case to, or back to, the magistrates' court under paragraph 42. a motor vehicle has been clamped under a clamping order, and at the end of the period specified in fines collection regulations under paragraph 46 any part of the sum due is unpaid. The magistrates' court may order that— the vehicle is to be sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with those regulations, and any proceeds are to be applied in accordance with those regulations in discharging P’s liability in respect of the sum due. The fines officer may refer a case to the magistrates' court at any time during the period which— begins the day after the collection order is made, and ends with the date on which— the sum due (including any increase to which he remains liable) is paid, or the order is discharged. On a referral under this paragraph, the court may— exercise any of its standard powers in respect of persons liable to pay fines or other sums, or . . . exercise a power it could exercise under any other paragraph. Where the court exercises any of its standard powers under sub-paragraph (2)(b) it may also discharge the order. Fines collection regulations may provide for the fines officer to have the power to issue a summons for the purpose of ensuring that P attends a magistrates' court to whom P’s case has been referred under this paragraph or paragraph 37. This paragraph applies where— the sum due consists of or includes a fine, and the fines officer has referred P's case to the court— under paragraph 37(6)(a), or after taking any of the steps listed in paragraph 38. Where the court is satisfied that the default is due to P's wilful refusal or culpable neglect, the court may increase the fine which is the subject of the order. But the court may not increase any other sum which is the subject of the order. The amount of the increase is to be determined in accordance with fines collection regulations but must not be greater than 50% of the fine. The increase is given effect by treating it as part of the fine imposed on P by his conviction. In this Schedule “fines collection regulations” means regulations made by the Lord Chancellor for the purpose of giving effect to this Schedule. Fines collection regulations may, for the purpose of giving effect to this Schedule and section 97 so far as it relates to this Schedule, make provision modifying (or applying with modifications) any enactment which relates to fines or the enforcement of payment of sums falling within paragraph 1 . The enactments which may be so modified (or applied with modifications) include enactments containing offences. Fines collection regulations may make different provision for different cases. Fines collection regulations may, for the purpose of giving effect to the powers to make attachment of earnings orders, make provision as to the method for calculating the amounts which are to be deducted from P’s earnings. Fines collection regulations may, for the purpose of giving effect to the powers to make clamping orders and to order the sale of clamped motor vehicles, make provision in connection with— the fitting of immobilisation devices; the fitting of immobilisation notices to motor vehicles to which immobilisation devices have been fitted; the removal and storage of motor vehicles; the release of motor vehicles from immobilisation devices or from storage (including the conditions to be met before the vehicle is released); the sale or other disposal of motor vehicles not released. Fines collection regulations must provide that an immobilisation device may not be fitted to a vehicle— which displays a current disabled person’s badge ;or a current recognised badge , or in relation to which there are reasonable grounds for believing that it is used for the carriage of a disabled person. “disabled person’s badge” means a badge issued, or having effect as if issued, under regulations made under section 21 of the Chronically Sick and Disabled Persons Act 1970 (badges for display on motor vehicles used by disabled persons); “immobilisation device” has the same meaning as in section 104(9) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 (immobilisation of vehicles illegally parked); “motor vehicle” means a mechanically propelled vehicle intended or adapted for use on roads, except that section 189 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 (exceptions for certain vehicles) applies for the purposes of this Schedule as it applies for the purposes of the Road Traffic Acts. “recognised badge” has the meaning given by section 21A of the Chronically Sick and Disabled Persons Act 1970 (recognition of badges issued outside Great Britain). P commits an offence if, in providing a statement of financial circumstances (whether a statement of assets, of other financial circumstances or of both) to a fines officer in response to a relevant request, he— A person guilty of an offence under sub-paragraph (1) is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale. P commits an offence if he fails to provide a fines officer with a statement of financial circumstances (whether a statement of assets, of other financial circumstances or of both) requested by a relevant request. A person guilty of an offence under sub-paragraph (3) is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. A relevant request is a request for information about P’s financial circumstances (whether about P's assets, P's other financial circumstances or both) which— is made by a fines officer, and is expressed to be made for the purpose of determining whether or how the fines officer should vary the payment terms (or the reserve terms) of a collection order in P’s favour. Proceedings in respect of an offence under this paragraph may be commenced at any time within— 2 years from the date of the commission of the offence, or 6 months from its first discovery by the prosecutor, whichever ends first. A person commits an offence if he removes or attempts to remove— an immobilisation device, or an immobilisation notice, fitted or fixed to a motor vehicle in accordance with a clamping order made under a further steps notice or under paragraph 39(3)(b) (powers of court . . . ). A person guilty of an offence under this paragraph is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. In this Schedule “standard powers in respect of persons liable to pay fines or other sums” means any power that a magistrates' court would have had if P had not been subject to a collection order but had been liable to pay the sum due. For the purposes of this Schedule the period during which an appeal under this Schedule is pending is to be treated as including the period within which the appeal may be brought (regardless of whether it is in fact brought). In this Schedule “10 working days” means any period of 10 days not including— Saturday or Sunday, Christmas Day or Good Friday, or any day which is a bank holiday in England and Wales under the Banking and Financial Dealings Act 1971. In this Schedule “the magistrates' court”, in relation to a collection order, means any magistrates' court acting in the local justice area in which the court which made the order was sitting. This Schedule applies if a person aged 18 or over (“P”) is liable to pay a sum which is or is treated for the purposes of Part 3 of the 1980 Act as a sum adjudged to be paid by conviction of a magistrates' court. “the prescribed hourly sum” means such sum as may be prescribed by regulations; “regulations” means regulations made under this Schedule by the Lord Chancellor; “the relevant court” means— the court imposing the liability to pay the relevant sum, or if that liability has previously been imposed, the magistrates' court responsible for enforcing payment of the relevant sum; “the relevant sum” means the sum for which P is liable as mentioned in sub-paragraph (1), but excluding any pecuniary compensation, any pecuniary forfeiture or any sum due in respect of prosecution costs. The relevant court may, on the application of a fines officer or of its own motion, make an order under this Schedule (a “work order”) where— it appears to the court that in view of P’s financial circumstances all the following methods of enforcing payment of the relevant sum are likely to be impracticable or inappropriate— a warrant of control under section 76 of the 1980 Act, an application to the High Court or county court for enforcement under section 87 of the 1980 Act, an order under section 88 of the 1980 Act, an attachment of earnings order, an application for deductions to be made by virtue of section 24 of the Criminal Justice Act 1991 (recovery of fines etc. by deductions from universal credit and income support etc.), and a collection order under Schedule 5 (including a notice of conviction and penalty (within the meaning of section 16L of the Magistrates’ Courts Act 1980) in a case where, by virtue of paragraph 21(3) of Schedule 5, that notice is treated as a collection order), it appears to the court that P is a suitable person to perform unpaid work under this Schedule, and P consents to the making of the order. A court which is considering the making of a work order may issue a summons requiring P to appear before the court. A magistrates' court which is considering the making of a work order may order P to give to the court, within a specified period, such a statement of his assets and other financial circumstances as the court may require. Subsections (2) to (4) of section 84 of the 1980 Act (offences in respect of statement of assets and other financial circumstances) apply to an order made under sub-paragraph (3) as they apply to an order made under subsection (1) of that section. A work order is an order requiring P to perform unpaid work for a specified number of hours, in accordance with instructions to be given by the fines officer, in order to discharge by virtue of this Schedule his liability for the relevant sum. The order must also— state the amount of the relevant sum, specify a fines office to which the order is allocated, and specify a person (“the supervisor”) who is to act as supervisor in relation to P. The specified number of hours is to be determined by dividing the relevant sum by the prescribed hourly sum and, where the result is not a whole number, adjusting the result upwards to the next whole number. A work order must specify a date (“the specified date”) not later than which the required hours of unpaid work must be performed. In the following provisions of this Schedule “the fines officer”, in relation to P, means any fines officer working at the fines office specified in the work order. Where a work order has been made in respect of the relevant sum, payment of that sum may not be enforced against P unless the order is revoked. On making a work order, the court must revoke any order relating to the enforcement of the payment of the relevant sum. A person may not be appointed as the supervisor without his consent. It is the duty of the supervisor— to monitor P’s compliance with the requirements of the work order, and to provide the court with such information as the court may require relating to P’s compliance with those requirements. Where a work order is in force, P must perform for the number of hours specified in the order such work, at such places and at such times as he may be instructed by the fines officer. The fines officer must ensure, as far as practicable, that any instructions given to P in pursuance of the work order are such as to avoid— any conflict with P’s religious beliefs, and any interference with the times, if any, at which he normally works or attends school or any other educational establishment. If not later than the specified date P performs work in accordance with the instructions of the fines officer for the specified number of hours, his liability to pay the relevant sum is discharged. Where a work order has been made in respect of any sum— on payment of the whole of the sum to any person authorised to receive it, the work order ceases to have effect, and on payment of part of the sum to any such person, the number of hours specified in the order is to be taken to be reduced by a proportion corresponding to that which the part paid bears to the whole of the relevant sum. In calculating any reduction required by sub-paragraph (1)(b), any fraction of an hour is to be disregarded. If, on the application of the fines officer, it appears to the relevant court that P is failing or has failed to comply with a work order without reasonable excuse, the court must revoke the order. If, on the application of the fines officer, it appears to the relevant court— that P has failed to comply with a work order but has a reasonable excuse for the failure, or that, because of a change in circumstances since the order was made, P is unlikely to be able to comply with a work order, the court may revoke the order or postpone the specified date. The relevant court may of its own motion revoke a work order if it appears to the court that, because of a change in circumstances since the order was made, P is unlikely to be able to comply with the order. A work order may be revoked under any of sub-paragraphs (1) to (3), or varied under sub-paragraph (2), before the specified date (as well as on or after that date). Regulations may provide for the fines officer to have the power to issue a summons for the purpose of ensuring that P attends the court to which an application has been made under sub-paragraph (1) or (2). If it appears to the court revoking a work order under paragraph 8(1), (2) or (3) that P has performed at least one hour of unpaid work in accordance with the instructions of the fines officer, the court must by order specify the number of hours of work that have been performed; and for this purpose any fraction of an hour is to be disregarded. Where the court has specified a number of hours under this paragraph, P’s liability to pay the relevant sum is discharged to the extent of the prescribed hourly sum in respect of each hour. Where a work order is revoked under paragraph 8(1), (2) or (3), immediate payment of the relevant sum (subject to any reduction under paragraph 9(2)) may be enforced against P. Sub-paragraph (1) does not limit the court’s power, on or after the revocation of the work order, to allow time for payment or to direct payment by instalments. The obligations of P under a work order are not enforceable against him except by virtue of paragraph 10(1). it falls to a court to determine whether P has performed unpaid work in accordance with a work order, and the court is satisfied— that the supervisor is likely to be able to give evidence that may assist the court in determining that matter, and that the supervisor will not voluntarily attend as a witness. The court may issue a summons directed to that person requiring him to attend before the court at the time and place appointed in the summons to give evidence. Regulations may— require a work order to contain prescribed information, require the court making a work order to give a copy of the order to such persons as may be prescribed, and require the court revoking or varying a work order to give notice of the revocation or variation to such persons as may be prescribed. England and Wales is to be divided into districts for the purposes of this Schedule. The districts are to be those specified in regulations made under paragraph 12. An enforcement officer is an individual who is authorised to act as such by the Lord Chancellor or a person acting on his behalf. The Lord Chancellor or a person acting on his behalf must assign at least one enforcement officer to each district. The Lord Chancellor or a person acting on his behalf may— assign an enforcement officer to more than one district, and change any assignment of an enforcement officer so that he is assigned to a different district or to different districts. A writ of execution issued from the High Court may be directed— if only one enforcement officer is assigned to the district in which the writ is to be executed, to that officer, if two or more enforcement officers are assigned to that district, to those officers collectively, or to a named enforcement officer who, whether or not assigned to that district, has undertaken to execute the writ. In this paragraph “writ of execution” does not include— a writ of sequestration, or a writ relating to ecclesiastical property. Sub-paragraph (2) applies for the purpose of identifying the enforcement officer to whom a warrant may be issued under— section 91(1) of the Lands Clauses Consolidation Act 1845 (proceedings in case of refusal to deliver possession of lands), or section 13(1) of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965 (refusal to give possession to acquiring authority). The enforcement officer, in relation to such a warrant, is— the enforcement officer assigned to a relevant district or, if two or more enforcement officers are assigned to that district, those officers collectively, or a named enforcement officer who, whether or not assigned to a relevant district, has undertaken to execute the warrant. In sub-paragraph (2), “a relevant district”, in relation to a warrant, means— the district where the land in respect of which the warrant was issued is situated, or if that land (being land in one ownership) is not situated wholly in one district, a district where any part of that land is situated. This paragraph applies in relation to writs directed to one or more enforcement officers under paragraph 3 and warrants issued to one or more enforcement officers under an enactment mentioned in paragraph 3A(1)(a) or (b) . But it is subject to Schedule 12 to the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 in the case of a writ conferring power to use the procedure in that Schedule. The relevant officer has, in relation to the writ, the duties, powers, rights, privileges and liabilities that a sheriff of a county would have had at common law if— the writ had been directed to him, and the district in which it is to be executed had been within his county. The relevant officer has, in relation to the warrant, the duties, powers, rights, privileges and liabilities that a sheriff of a county would have had at common law if— the warrant had been issued to him, and “The relevant officer” means— in relation to a writ— if the writ is directed to a single enforcement officer under paragraph 3(1)(a) or (c), that officer; if the writ is directed to two or more enforcement officers collectively under paragraph 3(1)(b), the officer to whom, in accordance with approved arrangements, the execution of the writ is allocated, in relation to a warrant— if the warrant is issued to a single enforcement officer in accordance with paragraph 3A(2)(a) or (b), that officer; if the warrant is issued to two or more enforcement officers collectively in accordance with paragraph 3A(2)(a), the officer to whom, in accordance with approved arrangements, the execution of the warrant is allocated. Sub-paragraphs (2) and (2A) apply to a person acting under the authority of the relevant officer as they apply to the relevant officer. In this Schedule “approved arrangements” means arrangements approved by the Lord Chancellor or a person acting on his behalf. It is the duty of every constable, at the request of— an enforcement officer, or a person acting under the officer’s authority, to assist the officer or that person in the execution of a writ or warrant. Paragraph 7 applies to any writ of execution against goods which is issued from the High Court. Paragraphs 8 to 11— do not apply to any writ that confers power to use the procedure in Schedule 12 to the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007, but apply to any other writ of execution against goods which is issued from the High Court. If the writ is directed to a single enforcement officer under paragraph 3(1)(a) or (c), that officer must endorse it as soon as possible after receiving it. If the writ is directed to two or more enforcement officers collectively under paragraph 3(1)(b), the individual who, in accordance with approved arrangements, is responsible for allocating its execution to one of those officers, must endorse it as soon as possible after receiving it. If the writ is directed to a person who is not an enforcement officer but is under a duty to execute it, that person must endorse it as soon as possible after receiving it. For the purposes of this paragraph, a person endorses a writ by endorsing on the back of it the date and time when he received it. No fee may be charged for endorsing a writ under this paragraph. Subject to sub-paragraph (2), the writ binds the property in the goods of the execution debtor from the time when the writ is received by the person who is under a duty to endorse it. The writ does not prejudice the title to any goods of the execution debtor acquired by a person in good faith and for valuable consideration. Sub-paragraph (2) does not apply if the person acquiring goods of the execution debtor had notice, at the time of the acquisition, that— the writ, or any other writ by virtue of which the goods of the execution debtor might be seized or attached, had been received by the person who was under a duty to endorse it but had not been executed. an application for the issue of a warrant of execution against the goods of the execution debtor had been made to the ... county court, and the warrant issued on the application remained unexecuted in the hands of a person charged with its execution. For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2) a thing shall be treated as done in good faith if it is in fact done honestly (whether it is done negligently or not). Any reference in this paragraph to the goods of the execution debtor includes anything else of his that may lawfully be seized in execution. This paragraph applies where an enforcement officer or other person who is under a duty to execute the writ is executing it. The officer may, by virtue of the writ, seize— any goods of the execution debtor that are not exempt goods, and any money, banknotes, bills of exchange, promissory notes, bonds, specialties or securities for money belonging to the execution debtor. “Exempt goods” means— such tools, books, vehicles and other items of equipment as are necessary to the execution debtor for use personally by him in his employment, business or vocation; such clothing, bedding, furniture, household equipment and provisions as are necessary for satisfying the basic domestic needs of the execution debtor and his family. a writ of execution has been issued from the High Court, goods are seized under the writ by an enforcement officer or other person under a duty to execute it, and the goods are to be sold for a sum which, including legal incidental expenses, exceeds £20. The sale must be— made by public auction, and not by bill of sale or private contract, unless the court otherwise orders, and publicly advertised on, and during the three days preceding, the day of sale. If the person who seized the goods has notice of another execution or other executions, the court must not consider an application for leave to sell privately until the notice prescribed by Civil Procedure Rules has been given to the other execution creditor or creditors.
