(This note is not part of the Act of Sederunt)
This Act of Sederunt makes provision for the fees payable to messengers-at-arms for service of a document under Regulation (EC) No. 1393/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13th November 2007 on the service in the Member States of judicial and extrajudicial documents in civil or commercial matters. Article 11(2) of that Regulation requires the setting of a single fixed fee. Recital (16) of the Preamble states that this does not prevent the fixing of different fees for different types of service.
