(4) Subject to paragraph (5) a claim form or application notice under this rule must be supported by evidence that the applicant—
(a)claims no interest in the subject—matter in dispute other than for charges or costs;
(b)does not collude with any of the claimants to that subject—matter; and
(c)is willing to pay or transfer that subject—matter into Court or to dispose of it as the Court may direct.

(3) Subject to paragraph (5), every application must be supported by witness statement or affidavit.
(4) Where a defendant in custody who desires to apply for bail is unable through lack of means to instruct a solicitor, he may give notice in writing to the [F65court] stating his desire to apply for bail and requesting that the official solicitor shall act for him in the application, and the [F66court may] assign the official solicitor to act for the applicant accordingly.
(5) Where the official solicitor has been so assigned the [F67court may] dispense with the requirements of paragraphs (1) to (3) and deal with the application in a summary manner.
(6) Where the [F68court] grants the defendant bail, the order must be in Form No. 98 in the relevant Practice Direction and a copy of the order shall be transmitted forthwith—
(a)where the proceedings in respect of the defendant have been transferred to the Crown Court for trial or where the defendant has been committed to the Crown Court to be sentenced or otherwise dealt with, to the appropriate officer of the Crown Court;
(b)in any other case, to the [F69[F70designated officer] for] the court which committed the defendant.
(6A) The recognizance of any surety required as a condition of bail granted as aforesaid may, where the defendant is in a prison or other place of detention, be entered into before the governor or keeper of the prison or place as well as before the persons specified in section 8 (4) of the Bail Act 1976.
(6B) Where under section 3 (5) or (6) of the Bail Act 1976(8) [F71the court] imposes a requirement to be complied with before a person’s release on bail, [F72it] may give directions as to the manner in which and the person or persons before whom the requirement may be complied with.
(7) A person who in pursuance of an order for the grant of bail made by [F73the court] under this rule proposes to enter into a recognizance or give security must, unless [F74the court] otherwise directs, give notice (in Form No. 100 in the relevant Practice Direction) to the prosecutor at least 24 hours before he enters into the recognizance or complies with the requirements as aforesaid.
(8) Where in pursuance of such an order as aforesaid a recognizance is entered into or requirement complied with before any person, it shall be the duty of that person to cause the recognizance or, as the case may be, a statement of the requirement complied with to be transmitted forthwith—
(a)where the proceedings in respect of the defendant have been transferred to the Crown Court for trial or where the defendant has been committed to the Crown Court to be sentenced or otherwise dealt with, to the appropriate officer of the Crown Court;
(b)in any other case, to the [F75[F76designated officer] for] the court which committed the defendant
and a copy of such recognizance or statement shall at the same time be sent to the governor or keeper of the prison or other place of detention in which the defendant is detained, unless the recognizance was entered into or the requirement complied with before such governor or keeper.
(10) An order F77... varying the arrangements under which the defendant has been granted bail shall be in Form 98A in the relevant practice direction and a copy of the order shall be transmitted forthwith—
(a)where the proceedings in respect of the defendant have been transferred to the Crown Court for trial or where the defendant has been committed to the Crown Court to be sentenced or otherwise dealt with, to the appropriate officer of the Crown Court;
(b)in any other case, to the [F78[F79designated officer] for] the court which committed the defendant.
(11) Where in pursuance of an order of [F80the High Court or the Crown Court] a person is released on bail in any criminal proceeding pending the determination of an appeal to the High Court or House of Lords or an application for [F81a quashing order], then, upon the abandonment of the appeal or application, or upon the decision of the High Court or House of Lords being given, any justice (being a justice acting for the same petty sessions area as the magistrates' court by which that person was convicted or sentenced) may issue process for enforcing the decision in respect of which such appeal or application was brought or, as the case may be, the decision of the High Court or House of Lords.
(12) If an applicant to the High Court in any criminal proceedings is refused bail F82..., the applicant shall not be entitled to make a fresh application for bail to any other judge or to a Divisional Court.
(13) The record required by section 5 of the Bail Act 1976(9) to be made by the High Court shall be made by including in the file relating to the case in question a copy of the relevant order of the Court and shall contain the particulars set out in Form No. 98 or 98A in the relevant Practice Direction, whichever is appropriate, except that in the case of a decision to withhold bail the record shall be made by inserting a statement of the decision on the Court’s copy of the relevant claim form and including it in the file relating to the case in question.
(14) In the case of a person whose return or surrender is sought under the Extradition Act 1989(10), this rule shall apply as if references to the defendant were references to that person and references to the prosecutor were references to the State seeking the return or surrender of that person.

Rule 4—(1) Where, in the case of an appeal under section 13 of the Administration of Justice Act 1960 to the Court of Appeal or to the House of Lords from the Court of Appeal, the appellant is in custody, the Court of Appeal may order his release on his giving security (whether by recognisance, with or without sureties, or otherwise and for such reasonable sum as that court may fix) for his appearance within 10 days after the judgment of the Court of Appeal or, as the case may be, of the House of Lords on the appeal shall have been given, before the court from whose order or decision the appeal is brought unless the order or decision is reversed by that judgment.

(4) When granting bail under this rule in a case of civil contempt of court, the Court of Appeal may order that the recognisance or other security to be given by the appellant or the recognisance of any surety shall be given before any person authorised by virtue of section 119(1) of the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 to take a recognisance where a magistrates' court having power to take it has, instead of taking it, fixed the amount in which the principal and his sureties, if any, are to be bound. An order by the Court of Appeal granting bail as aforesaid must be in Form 98 in the relevant practice direction with the necessary adaptations.
(5) Where in pursuance of an order of the Court of Appeal under paragraph (4) of this rule a recognisance is entered into or other security given before any person, it shall be the duty of that person to cause the recognisance of the appellant or any surety or, as the case may be, a statement of the other security given, to be transmitted forthwith to the [F138[F139designated officer] for] the court which committed the appellant; and a copy of such recognisance or statement shall at the same time be sent to the governor or keeper of the prison or other place of detention in which the appellant is detained, unless the recognisance or security was given before such governor or keeper.
