Proceeding contribution from Oliver Heald (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 4 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Legal Services Bill [Lords].


Legal Services Bill [Lords]

That is better than nothing—we would be prepared to debate it. However, there is little to criticise in consulting the most senior judge. The Under-Secretary said that she did not want to do that because it gives consumer groups the wrong impression. However, if it is the right thing to do, surely we should do it.
