(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules insert a new rule 41A in the Probation Rules 1984 ("the 1984 Rules")which indicates the persons to whom a probation committee may make payments (which it is not already authorised to make under the 1984 Rules) for the purpose of assisting the probation service in carrying out its functions. The persons in question are set out in paragraphs (1) and (2) of the new rule, and the limitations on such payments are set out in paragraphs (3) and (4) of that rule.
