The Director may at any time require a legal person to provide information in relation to a determination made under paragraph 3(1)(b), 4(1)(c) or 5(2)(b) of Schedule 3 to the Act, or any application for such a determination.
The information which the legal person is required to provide in accordance with these Regulations includes, but is not limited to, information relating to—
the form of the legal person and, in particular, whether it is profit-making or not;
the financial resources of the legal person, including its assets and profits;
the financial resources of any subsidiary of the legal person or any other related legal person;
the financial resources of any person with a legal or beneficial interest in the legal person; and
the ability of the legal person to obtain sufficient means to fund the services in relation to which an application for civil or criminal legal aid has been made (whether by way of a loan, sale of shares, sale of share capital or any other method).
The legal person must provide the Director with such information as the Director may request for the purposes of paragraph (1) within fourteen days of the Director making the request, or such other period as may be agreed by the Director and the legal person.
