Legal Services Bill [HL]

My Lords, in the absence of my noble friend Lord Thomas of Gresford, who is in sunnier climes—although, I hasten to say, working very hard—I thank the Minister for the important concession made in these amendments. The specificity of the public interest within the statute is, in our view, a matter of considerable importance, and it is of course of paramount importance that the Government have accepted that. So we support the amendments.
