(1) removing the restriction to solicitors and counsel of the ability to seek extensions of time for appeal to the High Court against a taxing master’s decision (thereby allowing the Lord Chancellor to seek such an extension);
(2) allowing a taxing master rather than the Chief Taxing Master to extend time limits, reduce costs or entertain an appeal against a decision on extending a time limit by the appropriate (fee determining) authority;
(3) stating explicitly that waiting time is included within a solicitor’s standard fee for bail applications.
