Section 52.19A

In this rule, “Aarhus Convention claim” and “prohibitively expensive” have the same meanings as in Section IX of Part 46, and “claimant” means a claimant to whom rules 46.26 to 46.28 apply. In an appeal against a decision made in an Aarhus Convention claim to which rules 46.26 to 46.28 apply, the court must— consider whether the costs of the proceedings will be prohibitively expensive for a party who was a claimant; and if they will be, make an order limiting the recoverable costs to the extent necessary to prevent this. When the court considers the financial resources of a party for the purposes of this rule, it must have regard to any financial support which any person has provided or is likely to provide to that party.
