Proceeding contribution from Lord Thomas of Gresford (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 23 January 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Legal Services Bill [HL].


Legal Services Bill [HL]

That is the case. When we get to the section on alternative structures, we will be arguing from the point of view of the high-street lawyer, who provides a very necessary service to the consumer but whose interests the Government seem to ignore. As the Minister pointed out, there is absolutely no way that we on these Benches lack a concern for the consumer.
