Present: The Right Hon. G. W. Forbes, presiding in Council. IN pursuance and exercise of the power and authority conferred on him by the Public Revenues Act, 1926, and the Justices of the Peace Act, 1927, and of all other powers and authorities him in this behalf in anywise enabling, His Excellency the Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby make the regulations hereinafter set out.

REGULATIONS. 1. (1) These regulations may be referred to as “ The Crown Legal Business Regulations, 1932.” (2) These regulations apply to all Departments of the Government, and Departments are required and directed to observe the same. (3) . These regulations shall take effect from and after the last day of June, 1932, from which date all former regulations on the subject are hereby revoked. 2. In these, regulations, if not inconsistent with the context, — “ Crown Solicitor ” means a solicitor appointed by the Crown to prosecute on its behalf in the Supreme Court: “ Registrar ” means the Registrar of the Supreme Court, and includes the Deputy Registrar : “ The Crown ” means His Majesty the King in right of His Dominion of New Zealand, and includes any Department of the Government of the said Dominion acting by or under the direction of a Minister having control of such Department. Part I.—Employment oe Counsel and Solicitors. 3. Instructions to solicitors are always to be conveyed by the permanent head of the Department for which the solicitor is to act, or by some officer thereof under the direction of such permanent head. 4. Without such instructions no Government officer shall seek legal advice, take counsel’s opinion, or initiate proceedings respecting any matter connected with his Department. 5. Crown Solicitors will be employed in the conduct of criminal prosecutions in the Supreme Court in every case in which the Crown is directly concerned, and will appear on behalf of the Crown when prisoners committed under section 181 of the Justices of the Peace Act, 1927, are brought before the Court for sentence. ° f 6. The Crown may, when it thinks fit, retain the Crown Solicitor in any summary proceedings or other legal business, but the Crown shall not be bound so to retain the Crown Solicitor, and may employ any other solicitor in summary proceedings or in any legal business whatever other than a criminal prosecution in the Supreme Court. 7. Crown Solicitors shall not be at liberty to accept employment or appear against the Crown, except in special circumstances and with the express permission of the SolicitorGeneral.

8. Instructions respecting criminal prosecutions in the Supreme Court will in general be issued by the Department of Justice, and Crown Solicitors will communicate with that Department upon all matters relating to such prosecutions, save that communications relating to a stay of proceedings will be made directly with the Solicitor-General. 9. Where counsel are employed the Crown reserves to itself the right of indicating what counsel shall be employed, and the number of such counsel, and of prescribing the fees to be paid. 10. The Crown reserves to itself the right of taking any matter or business out of the hands of any solicitor employed and requiring that all deeds, instruments, and papers in the hands of such solicitor relating thereto shall be handed over to some other solicitor to be nominated by the Crown. 11. No solicitor employed by the Crown shall have any lien upon any deeds, papers, or instruments in his hands, or upon any fund or moneys which shall be paid to or received by him in any manner or upon any account whatsoever in respect of any legal business in which the Crown is concerned. 12. It shall be the duty of the head of each Department and other officers thereof, in directing business to be undertaken, to see that full instructions are given to the solicitor at the time the business commences, and to render all reasonable assistance to him during its progress. 13. In all criminal prosecutions and summary proceedings the police will serve any process, procure the attendance of witnesses, and have them ready to be examined when required ; but the solicitor employed will be responsible to see that these duties are properly performed. 14. Where a solicitor is required to transact business at a distance from his usual place of residence, an agent must be employed where practicable, unless, from the nature of the case or for special reasons, it is necessary that the solicitor employed should himself transact such business. Except for special reasons and with the approval of the SolicitorGeneral, or in pursuance of existing departmental arrangements, a Crown Solicitor shall employ as agent in a town in which a Crown Solicitor has been appointed only such lastnamed solicitor. ‘

15. Solicitors having claims against the Crown for costs under these regulations shall prepare a voucher setting out full particulars. Such vouchers shall be sent by the solicitor to the nearest Registrar, who shall certify thereon whether such costs are in accordance with these regulations. If he is in doubt as to the propriety of any charge, the Registrar may refer it to the Under-Secretary of Justice for further consideration. The Registrar shall return the vouchers, when certified, to the solicitor, to be forwarded by him to the Department directing the proceedings or business. The head of such Department, or other recognized certifying officer, shall certify that the services charged for have been duly performed.

16. Where costs have been received or recovered by the solicitor employed by the Crown from one of the litigant parties, such solicitor shall pay the same into the Public Account and forward forthwith a bank receipt therefor to the Department directing the proceedings. 17. In matters for which an inclusive charge is fixed by these regulations, no further charge, except the amount of disbursements, will be allowed for attendance upon Government officers or others, attendances to register deeds or instruments, writing letters, sending telegrams, or for explanations or instructions relative to the business in hand or reporting upon its conclusion.

18. Where the solicitor instructed has to employ an agent, as provided in Regulation 14, a fee not exceeding £1 Is. will be allowed to such solicitor for instructions, but, with that exception, no more will be allowed to such solicitor and his agent together than would have been allowed to such solicitor alone if he had conducted the whole of the business himself.

19. Travelling-expenses at the following rates will be allowed to solicitors in all cases where they are required to travel more than three miles from their usual place of business : (a) The sum actually paid when the travelling can be performed by public conveyance. (For fares exceeding 55., other than railway fares, receipts must be produced.) ( b ) In other cases, Is. per mile one way. (c) For each day or part of a day exceeding eight hours on which the claimant was necessarily absent from his usual place of residence by way of board and lodging expenses the sum actually incurred, not exceeding for any day the sum of £l.

20. In all cases in which a fee is fixed by the regulations, it is to be understood that regard is to be had to the nature of the service actually rendered, and the fee to be allowed accordingly shall not necessarily be as much as the fee so fixed.

21. In the case of any business, matter, or proceeding not herein, specially mentioned, the charges to be made, whether as solicitor’s" costs or counsel’s fees, will be based upon the scale allowed in matters of a like character mentioned in these regulations. The assessment against the Crown of costs on the ordinary solicitor and client basis is not contemplated. 22. In a case where exceptional circumstances render it desirable that one of the scales herein set forth shall be exceeded in any particular, such other or additional costs or fees as may be reasonable, having regard to the nature of the business transacted, shall be allowed if approved by the Attorney General on the recommendation of the permanent head of the Department issuing the instructions. The circumstances by reason of which the general scale is not applicable shall, in all such cases, be fully specified by the proper officer. 23. Nothing in these regulations shall be deemed to prevent the Crown from taking steps to procure the taxation of any costs by the proper officer in the usual way ; but no payment will be made to the solicitor for attending the taxation. 24. Bills of costs shall be rendered immediately on completion of the matter or business to which they relate, and if not rendered within six months thereafter they will not be recognized, in the absence of special circumstances. 25. Every solicitor employed or retained by the Crown shall, if required so to do, notify in writing his acceptance of such employment or retainer upon the terms contained in these regulations; but such notification in writing shall not be necessary to show that such employment or retainer is upon such terms.

Part 11. Criminal and Quasi-criminal Proceedings (1) Supreme Court Trials.

26. Preliminary investigations of indictable offences before Justices of the Peace will be conducted by the private prosecutor or the police save in exceptional cases in which it is considered desirable that the Crown Solicitor should conduct the case on behalf of the police. 27. In private prosecutions the committing Justices shall ascertain from the prosecutor, as soon as a committal for trial takes place, whether he intends to take charge of the conduct of the prosecution or authorize the Crown Solicitor to act on his behalf. In all other cases the conduct of the prosecution after committal for trial shall be left to the Crown Solicitor. If the prosecution is left to the Crown Solicitor, the committing Justices shall make a memorandum on the depositions to that effect.

28. On receipt of the depositions the Registrar shall, if the prosecution is left to the Crown Solicitor, cause a copy thereof to be made without delay and transmit the same to him.

29. It shall be the duty of the Crown Solicitor carefully to consider the depositions and prepare the case for the Supreme Court, taking special care that any additional witnesses that can be obtained in support of the case are subpoenaed.

30. If the Attorney-General or Solicitor-General is of opinion that any prosecution instituted by a private prosecutor and left to the Crown Solicitor is such that it ought not to be conducted by the Crown Solicitor, notice thereof shall be given to the private prosecutor. 31. Such notice shall, where possible, be given to such private prosecutor not later than seven days in cases in which the committing Justices shall have sat at a distance of more than ten miles from the place at which the trial is to be held, and not later than three days in other cases, before the first day of the sittings at which the trial is to be held. If the committal shall have taken place within the said periods, then such notice shall be given with all reasonable despatch. 32. Notice sent by post to the usual or last-known place of abode of the person to whom notice is given shall be deemed a sufficient service thereof. 33. In all cases where such notice has been given, the Crown Solicitor shall not conduct the prosecution, these regulations shall not apply, and no costs or expenses will be paid by the Crown. 34. In proceedings on trials of indictable offences, other than trials of offences punishable by sentence of death, fees and costs to Crown Solicitors will be allowed as follows : As solicitorpreparing case for and attending trial, — (а) For each separate trial, £3 3s.

(e) If the Crown declines to offer any evidence or enters a nolle prosequi without evidence being given in support of the indictment, £1 Is. (/) On a new trial by reason of disagreement of the jury or for any other reason, no additional solicitor’s fee will be allowed, but counsel’s fees will be allowed according to scale. 35. The foregoing fees will not be paid in respect of indictments that might properly have been included with others presented. Any question arising as to the applicability of this regulation shall be referred to the Solicitor-General, whose decision shall be final.

36. The Crown Solicitor engaged in trials of offences punishable by sentence of death will be allowed, in lieu of the solicitor’s and counsel’s fees prescribed by Regulation 34 hereof, an inclusive fee of £7 7s. for each day occupied at the trial and at the preliminary investigation, and a like fee of £7 7s. will be paid for each full day necessarily occupied in preparing for trial or for the preliminary investigation. The provisions of paragraphs ( b ), (d), and (e) of Regulation 34 hereof shall apply to such cases. 37. Counsel assigned for the defence of accused in trials of offences punishable by sentence of death will be allowed an inclusive fee of £5 ss. for each day occupied at the trial, and a like fee of £5 ss. for each full day (not exceeding five days in all) occupied in preparing for trial, and (if appearing at the preliminary investigation) a like fee of £5 ss. for each day necessarily occupied at the preliminary investigation, and such fees shall be deemed to include the charges mentioned in paragraph ( b ) of Regulation 34 hereof. 38. For appearance when prisoners committed for sentence under section 181 of the Justices of the Peace Act, 1927, are brought before the Court for sentence, the Crown Solicitor will be allowed £1 Is. for each prisoner, irrespective of the number of charges ; but when more than one prisoner is committed for sentence on one information or as a result of one preliminary hearing, a fee of only £1 Is. will be allowed.

39. Vouchers in favour of Crown Solicitors are to state, in reference to each case in which costs are charged, whether or not the case went to trial, whether or not the accused pleaded guilty, whether a nolle prosequi was entered, or with what other result the proceedings terminated. 40. The Registrar at the place at which the trial is held will examine such vouchers, and, subject to any directions given by the presiding Judge, certify that the amounts claimed are in accordance with these regulations, and that the services charged for have been duly performed. Such vouchers are to be forwarded by the Registrar to the Department of Justice for payment. 41. Costs and expenses upon the trial of indictable offences when conducted by or on behalf of private prosecutors, except those cases to which Regulation 33 hereof applies, may be allowed by the presiding Judge and paid on the same scale arid in the same manner as if conducted by the Crown Solicitor. 42. Fees to be allowed to solicitors or counsel in a case reserved for the consideration of the Court of Appeal, or on an application for new trial, or an appeal against sentence, shall be such as shall be fixed by the Minister of Justice in each case.

(d) When for any reason the case is not taken into Court, or where the information or complaint is withdrawn or the defendant pleads guilty, a fee not exceeding £2 2s. will be allowed for drawing information or complaint and preparing case for hearing, with an additional fee of 10s. 6d. in respect of each additional information or complaint, if more than one.
