Proceeding contribution from Bridget Prentice (Labour) 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 agree that a good regulator would do so. I hope that when the office for legal complaints tells the consumer that it has forwarded the complaint for disciplinary investigation it will encourage the regulator to ensure that the consumer is kept informed. I did not want to table an amendment to that effect, because it would be too cumbersome. On that basis, I urge the House to accept the amendments.
