CRM12: Duty Rota Privacy Notice

Details

Organisations that wish to make amendments to their existing rota membership must submit a fully completed CRM12 detailing all duty solicitors they wish to add or remove from the rotas.

They need to confirm their organisation will:

  • meet contractual attendance requirements for its duty solicitors
  • only nominate duty solicitors who carry out 50 hours Criminal Defence Work per calendar month from the office for which rota slots are held
  • only nominate duty solicitors that are not named for rota slots with another organisation

Compliance against these requirements will be monitored throughout the contract period.

Duty Solicitors who have not previously submitted a CRM12 will need to provide a copy of the Criminal Litigation Accreditation Scheme (CLAS) certificate issued by the Law Society. This should be sent with their organisation’s CRM12.

The form should also be used to remove any duty solicitors who cease to be engaged by the organisation.
