Proceeding contribution from Chris Leslie (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 December 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Legal aid.


Legal aid

My hon. Friend makes her case powerfully. The cuts are atrociously harsh on civil cases. Nottingham law centre in my constituency says that last year it helped 1,300 people avoid housing repossession. I am exceptionally worried about the impact on homelessness and the potential for people to lose their homes. This is important stuff.
