After the heading to Order 1 of the Principal Rules insert —

" Introductory Note

These Rules are Rules of the Magistrates' Court as to proceedings under the Family Violence Protection Act 2008 .

Related Rules

These Rules are in many respects uniform with the Magistrates' Court (Personal Safety Intervention Orders) Rules 2011 (the Personal Safety Intervention Orders Rules). Many of the Orders and Rules are drafted in the same terms as the Personal Safety Intervention Orders Rules, except so far as minor variations are required to accord with the Family Violence Protection Act 2008 .

If the Personal Safety Intervention Orders Rules include an Order or a Rule that is not included in these Rules there is a gap in the numbering of these Rules in order to maintain consistent numbering for the other Orders and Rules.".
