4. As noted at para 3.1, magistrates' allowance rates were adjusted on 1 August 2008 to take account of recent unprecedented increases to the price of petrol. HMCS have emphasised that this action does not set a precedent in respect of reviewing the rates, which will continue to be revised annually.
