Explanatory Note.

(Thứ Note is not part of the rules, but la interuded to indicate their general purport).

These rules provide for the grant of legal aid in criminal trials in the Supreme Court, in appeals from a magistrate to the Supreme Court and in appeals from the Supreme Court or District Court to the Full Court if the disposable monthly income of the accused person or appellant does not exceed $1,500 and the value of his disposable capital does not exoced $10,000 (rule 41. Under rule 6 the Director of Legal Aid must be satisfied that the legal aid is desirable in the interests of justice. Under rules 8(3) and 12(3) legal aid may be assigned by the court notwithstanding that the Director has previously refused the application.

The grant of legal aid will be subject to payment of contributions by the aided person under Part 1 of the rules if his disposable monthly income exceeds $500 or his disposable capital exceeds $3,000. The die- posable resources of an aided person will be assessed for this purpose in the manner provided by the Legal Aid (Assessment of Contributions) Regulations. The amount which he will be required to pay will be deter mined in accordance with the tables set out in the Second Schedule to these rules.

In capital cases legal aid may be granted whatever the disposable | resources of the accused person or appellant and the court may dispense with the requirement to make contributions.

Solicitors and counsel will be assigned from a panel kept by the Director under rule 3. They will be remunerated for their services up to the maximum amounts provided by rule 21.
