Item of business
Subordinate Legislation
Act of Sederunt (Fees of Shorthand Writers in the Sheriff Court) (Amendment) 2011 (SSI 2011/166)
I note that the instrument provides for an increase of 3.6 per cent in fees to shorthand writers. Given that there have been reductions across the board in legal fees and so on, it is not entirely clear to me why fees in this area are going up. I do not propose to make an issue of it, but I make that observation in passing.
