Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Wirral (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 6 February 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Legal Services Bill [HL].
Legal Services Bill [HL]
I am listening with great interest to the Minister. These amendments would still mean that these firms would be regulated. I pay tribute to the Minister for her work in bringing forward the Compensation Act 2006; her light touch is legendary. But given that we have the Law Society with its existing regulatory requirements, why cannot we allow LDPs to continue under that particular regulator and regulatory regime rather than wait for a much more onerous and difficult-to-understand regime, which no doubt we shall discuss under later amendments?
