Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

These regulations allow witnesses summoned to a Board or Commissioner under the Inquiries Act 1945 to be paid allowances using the same scale that applies to witnesses in the High Court. The Chairman of a Board or the Commissioner exercises the taxing‑officer functions and treats references to a “Court” in that scale as references to the inquiry, so the inquiry authority decides and applies the rates (r 2).
