Clause 12
Legal Services Bill [Lords]

I do not think that that is the case; I do not think that will drafting is regulated in any way whatever.
To conclude, my concern is that, if there were regulation, far fewer people might make a will. Most wills are pretty straightforward documents; it is when complexity comes into will making that the possibility of mistakes increases. That is the potential problem area, and I shall certainly be interested to hear the Minister’s views.
