Changes to Legislation

Changes and effects yet to be applied by the editorial team are only applicable when viewing the latest version or prospective version of legislation. They are therefore not accessible when viewing legislation as at a specific point in time. To view the ‘Changes to Legislation’ information for this provision return to the latest version view using the options provided in the ‘What Version’ box above.

3(1)Nothing in this Act shall affect any legal aid under the 1967 Act or advice and assistance under the 1972 Act in respect of which an application has been determined before the appointed day; and, notwithstanding the repeal by this Act of these Acts, they and any schemes, regulations, orders or rules of court made under them shall continue to have effect for the purposes of such legal aid or advice and assistance.S

(2)For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1) above, where the 1967 Act or the 1972 Act or any such scheme, regulation, order or rule of court—

(a)requires or enables anything to be done by the Law Society or any of its committees or by any person on its behalf; or

(b)requires or enables the person in receipt of such legal aid or advice and assistance to do anything in relation to the Law Society,

that thing shall, on and after the appointed day, be required or, as the case may be, enabled to be done by or in relation to the Board.
