EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order is the thirteenth commencement order made under the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (c.10) (“the 2012 Act”).

Article 2 brings into force, on 6th April 2019, section 44 (conditional fee agreements: success fees) of the 2012 Act in relation to publication and privacy proceedings. Publication and privacy proceedings were excluded from the commencement of sections 44 and 46 (recovery of insurance premiums by way of costs) when those provisions were commenced by the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (Commencement No. 5 and Saving Provision) Order 2013 (SI 2013/77). Publication and privacy proceedings remain excluded from the commencement of section 46 of the 2012 Act, meaning that premiums for after the event insurance remain recoverable by way of costs in publication and privacy proceedings.

The transitional provisions in sections 44(6) of the 2012 Act have effect in respect of the provision commenced by this Order.
