EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

Part 6 of the Legal Services Act (c. 29) (“the 2007 Act”) establishes the Office for Legal Complaints (OLC) and confers a duty on the OLC to administer an ombudsman scheme for the resolution of complaints relating to the activities of authorised persons (as defined by the 2007 Act). A person is a complainant for purposes of the scheme if that person meets the conditions in section 128(3) and (4) (and is not excluded by subsection (5)). Subsection (4) sets out a list of conditions relating to the services to which a complaint relates. These include such conditions as are prescribed by the Lord Chancellor (subsection (4)(d)). This Order prescribes as conditions that the services to which the complaint relates were offered or refused by the respondent to the complainant. As a result, a person may complain to the ombudsman about services that person has been wrongfully refused, for example, or unwanted services which that person has been offered.

A full impact assessment of the effect that this instrument will have on the costs of business and the voluntary sector is available from the Ministry of Justice and is published with the Explanatory Memorandum alongside the instrument on www.legislation.gov.uk.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
