Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Wirral (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 22 January 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Legal Services Bill [HL].
Legal Services Bill [HL]
The noble Lord is right. We should reflect on the point that he makes as there are a number of unregulated and untrained providers who supply the will completely free, provided that often unsuitable financial products are sold to the individual. I would like to reflect on what he has said about that. The Minister will understand that the prime purpose behind my noble friend’s amendment and, indeed, Amendment No. 40 is to protect the public. I hope that the Minister can give us some reassuring words. In the mean time, I will reflect on the point made by the noble Lord, Lord Clinton-Davis. There is a need to protect the public in the case of will-writing.
