Proceeding contribution from Lord Neill of Bladen (Crossbench) 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]

Perhaps the quotation that the noble Lord had in mind from my noble and learned friend Lord Woolf is: "““There is no doubt that large businesses could provide legal services in a novel and interesting way. But that could—unintentionally, perhaps—have a devastating effect on those who have traditionally provided services in rural areas in particular. Great care has to be exercised to see that damage does not occur””.—[Official Report, 23/1/07; col. 1057.]" Is that the passage?
