All money payable to or recovered by a legally aided party in relevant proceedings or a relevant dispute, whether under a court order or an agreement or otherwise, must be paid to the legally aided party's provider, and only that provider is capable of giving good discharge for the money.
Paragraph (1) does not apply to—
any periodical payment of maintenance; or
any money which, in accordance with regulation 11, is not subject to the statutory charge.
Where a legally aided party's provider, or former provider, has reason to believe that an attempt may be made to circumvent the provisions of paragraph (1), the provider or former provider must inform the Lord Chancellor immediately.
