PQ 120
121 Deputy Kevin Humphreys asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if the legal services regulatory authority will be funded through a levy on the Bar Council and Law Society to cover each professional body of barristers and solicitors respectively, or if there will be a specific levy on individual practitioners; if an individual levy were to apply, will there be any effort made in the legal services Bill to structure an individual levy in a tiered way to protect those who are just entering the profession and would not have the same financial ability to meet such a charge as more established practitioners; if, in the case of a levy on the professional body, such a directive will include rules to protect newer entrants of the specific professions; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
