EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)


Under article 4(2)(b) of the Civil Proceedings Fees Order 2004 (S.I. 2004/3121) there is a maximum gross annual income taken into account for the purposes of working tax credit, above which working tax credit will not be a qualifying benefit for the purposes of exemption from court fees under the Order. This Order amends that maximum gross annual income, from £14,600 to £15,050.

This Order also corrects a numbering error in the fees currently numbered fees 2.4 to 2.9, so that fee 2.4 is renumbered fee 2.3, and so on.
