Schedule 2
Legal Services Bill [Lords]
2:30 pm
Henry Bellingham (Shadow Minister, Constitutional Affairs; North West Norfolk, Conservative)
I have one point to make on schedule 2. Paragraph 5(1) mentions “Reserved instrument activities”, about which I made a point when we discussed clause 12 and will writing. Will the Minister elaborate on paragraph 5(1)(c), which states that “reserved instrument activities” means, among other things,
“any other instrument relating to real or personal estate for the purposes of the law of England”?
To what does “other instrument” refer? We were discussing making over property, transfers, contracts and dispositions of property, but will the Minister tell us more about paragraph 5(1)(c)?
