MPs' support for Legal Services Act review divides opinion

MPs’ backing for a review of legal regulation has split opinion in the market, pitching the Legal Services Consumer Panel and Professor Stephen Mayson against the Law Society.

Good to see @CLConveyancers move on this. Reflects @StephenMayson’s conclusion in @IRLSR supplementary report on consumer harm (2022: page 135) that “providers of legal services should be subject to a positive duty of fair dealing”.

🤞🏻I was privileged to serve on @MoJGovUK Bellamy review of criminal legal aid: system desperately needs better funding. But @IRLSR recommendations could help address some challenges of civil legal aid (eg scope & cost) as well as support rule of law & #A2J
Richard W Smith@RWS_0121 Apr 2022
From reading the @lawsocgazette this morning, looks like @StephenMayson's latest report is far-fetching. Hopefully the MoJ will take onboard some of his recommendations this time lawgazette.co.uk/news/latest…

Latest Mayson report calls for extension of regulation

Review says much of the protection offered by current system of legal regulation is 'illusory'.

V Helpful o/view by @CrispinPassmore re progress since LSA07; he backs one regulator as per @IRLSR @StephenMayson and “choice”; I would have liked more analysis re in-house, rule of law, ethics/ESG; but I accept that changes will be small changes over time. #SmallChangeInHouse
