Illustration for Criminal Procedure Act 2011

The Witnesses and Interpreters Fees Regulations 1974 still apply to criminal cases. You can think of regulations like rules that help laws work. These rules can be changed as if they were made under section 387. The Witnesses and Interpreters Fees Regulations 1974 are available to view on the New Zealand legislation website. This means that the rules about paying witnesses and interpreters in criminal cases remain in place. You can find more information about these rules by looking at the Witnesses and Interpreters Fees Regulations 1974.
