“(3) At any stage of the proceedings, the Court or (where the proceedings are before the County Registrar) the County Registrar may require the parties to produce to the Court or the County Registrar (as the case may be) and exchange with one another estimates of the costs respectively incurred by them, for such period, and particularised in such manner as the Court or the County Registrar (as the case may be) may direct.” | ||

These rules amend rule 1 of Order 66 of the Circuit Court Rules to extend to the County Registrar the power exercisable by the Court under that provision to require production and exchange by the parties of estimates of costs. |
