Proceeding contribution from Lord Whitty (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 16 April 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Legal Services Bill [HL].
Legal Services Bill [HL]
Well, my Lords, he is part of the legal structure of this country. As far as the vast majority of the people in this country are concerned, and if you went out into the street and asked 100 people, ““Does the Lord Chief Justice represent the legal profession?””, that must be the answer. We are trying to establish a system of regulation that has the confidence of the people.
