122.—(1) Before making a detailed assessment of the costs of any person employed in SMCL administration proceedings by the SMCL administrator, the costs officer must require a certificate of employment, which must be endorsed on the bill and authenticated by the SMCL administrator.
(2) The certificate must include—
(a)the name and address of the person employed;
(b)details of the functions to be carried out under the employment; and
(c)a note of any special terms of remuneration which have been agreed.
(3) Every person whose costs in SMCL administration proceedings are required to be decided by detailed assessment must, on being required in writing to do so by the SMCL administrator, commence detailed assessment proceedings in accordance with CPR Part 47.
(4) If that person does not commence detailed assessment proceedings within three months of being required to do so under paragraph (3), or within such further time as the court, on application, may permit, the SMCL administrator may deal with the assets of the SMCL without regard to any claim for costs by that person, whose claim is forfeited by such failure to commence proceedings.
(5) Where in any such case such a claim for costs lies additionally against an SMCL administrator in the SMCL administrator’s personal capacity, that claim is also forfeited by such failure to commence proceedings.
