Three legislative amendments to increase the rates of allowances for jurors and witnesses in criminal proceedings and coroners' inquests will be tabled at the Legislative Council.

The Allowances to Jurors (Amendment) Order 2012 was gazetted today and will be tabled at the council on November 14 for negative vetting.

The Government plans to seek the council's approval for the Criminal Procedure (Witnesses' Allowances) (Amendment) Rules 2012, and the Coroners (Witnesses' Allowances) (Amendment) Rules 2012 on November 28.

The proposed increases, from $360 per day to $410 per day for jurors, for example, aim to maintain the real value of rates to minimise financial loss to people serving or testifying in the courts.

Subject to the relevant legislative process's completion, the revised allowance rates will take effect on a date the Chief Justice specifies.
