These Regulations amend the Legal Aid in Criminal and Care Proceedings (Costs) Regulations 1989 to correct two defective references inserted by the Legal Aid in Criminal and Care Proceedings (Costs) (Amendment) Regulations 2001, which increased rates of remuneration for solicitors who hold general criminal contracts under the Access to Justice Act 1999.
