This report must be the starting point for the CBA and Bar Council’s unified

demand for a minimum increase of 15% in criminal barristers’ fees for defence

work which must be matched with identical increases in the fees for prosecuting

these cases for the CPS. That will include an additional uplift by the CPS who still

pay over £400 less than the defence fees for the prosecution of a rape case.
