Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ashton of Upholland (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 21 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 can see noble Lords nodding at what the noble and learned Baroness said. I am happy to consider whether those measures would be appropriate. That is the sort of thing I am thinking of; not making it a requirement but enabling flexibility. It would be precisely in the circumstances that she indicated, where you have somebody who could not take this through. We need to help people enforce what is rightfully theirs—I am a great believer in that. I would like to take this away, discuss it and come back.
