Proceeding contribution from John Hemming (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 15 October 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Legal Services Bill [Lords].
Legal Services Bill [Lords]
I experienced the same difficulty during pre-legislative scrutiny and in Committee in understanding how, if the Minister appoints and removes the legal services board chair, the body is independent of Government. The Under-Secretary essentially proposes a system whereby the Government are in control of the legal services board.
