Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ashton of Upholland (Labour) 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]

I was resisting using the words ““most important”” because of the earlier conversation, which was about trying to suggest that a weight was given to the different objectives by the board before it began. In a particular set of circumstances the board may consider that there has been a failure in one of the regulatory objectives, even looked at as a whole, that warrants action. In that context, that will be more important—but it is in those circumstances, taking into account all the factors. A key part of that is looking at the regulatory objectives as a whole.
