The Crime Contract has been extended to 30 September 2014.  Your Crime Schedule, reflecting this extension, will be published electronically on the Contracted Work and Administration (CWA) system in the first week of September.

This is slightly later than usual but won?t affect the timing of your payments.  We apologise for any inconvenience this causes you in reporting work closed in August and thank you for your patience. 

Once the new Schedule has been put on CWA, the billing portal will be updated with your August submission and you can again report work on an ongoing, monthly basis.  

You can still submit all work closed in July on CWA this month until 20 August.  

There is a new Schedule reference number that you will need to include from your August 2013 submission, entered into CWA on or before the 20 September.

Until further notice this will end in ?12? i.e. CRM/NANNNA/12 (NANNNA denotes the Legal Aid account number of the scheduled office).
