Proceeding contribution from Lord Beecham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 21 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Justice: Reform of Punishment, Rehabilitation, Sentencing and Legal Aid.
Justice: Reform of Punishment, Rehabilitation, Sentencing and Legal Aid
My Lords, under civil legal aid, how many of the estimated 700,000 cases for which entitlement would have been lost under the original proposals will now be retained? What is the estimated cost of those changes to restore legal aid and advice that would otherwise have been removed? Secondly, is it correct that 90 per cent of the 5,000 responses disagreed with the proposals for legal aid?
