Legal Services Bill [HL]

I am very grateful to the Minister for her response. It is clearly necessary that a more detailed investigation into consumer detriment takes place. In the Joint Select Committee, Mr Eddie Ryan of Co-operative Legal Services told us that he singled out will-writing and probate as items which should become restricted services. The AA also gave us evidence to that effect. Clearly, more evidence needs to be accumulated. If I might return to this subject at a later stage, I will do a little more investigation on what evidence currently is in existence to underpin the arguments I have put forward. In the mean time, I seek leave to withdraw the amendment—sorry, I apologise.
