(1)This Order may be cited as the Family Proceedings Fees Order 1991 and shall come into force on 14th October 1991.
(2)In this Order, unless a contrary intention appears—• a rule or form referred to by number alone means the rule or form so numbered in the Family Proceedings Rules 1991;• expressions also used in the Family Proceedings Rules 1991 have the same meaning as in those Rules.
Subject to articles 3 and 4, the fees specified in the Schedule to this Order shall be taken in family proceedings in the High Court or in a county court.
Where it appears to the Lord Chancellor that the payment of any fee prescribed by this Order would, owing to the exceptional circumstances of the particular case, involve undue hardship, he may reduce or remit the fee in that case.
