This Order amends the Civil Legal Aid (Scotland) Regulations 2002 ("the 2002 Regulations") and revokes the Adults with Incapacity (Countersignatories of Applications for Authority to Intromit) (Scotland) Regulations 2001 ("the 2001 Regulations") in consequence of the substitution of Part 3 (accounts and funds) of the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act 2000 (asp 4) ("the Act") by section 58 of the Adult Support and Protection (Scotland) Act 2007.
The 2002 Regulations are amended to update the references to the relevant sections in the new Part 3 of the Act. The 2001 Regulations are revoked as the persons who may countersign applications are no longer required to be of a prescribed class (new section 27A of the Act).
