More Carter

Just mentioned Carter below when this press release arrives from the Association of Major London Criminal Firms.
See what you think.
“The Association of Major London Criminal Law Firms welcomes the
publication of Lord Carter’s report on the procurement of Criminal Legal
Defence Services and accepts the analysis that the system is in need of
wholesale reform. The Association supports the restructuring of the
supplier base but remains to be convinced that price competitive
tendering is the best method by which to secure best value. A Better
recognition of the costs drivers that remain outside the influence of
criminal law suppliers would be welcomed. The Associations members
believe that the report represents an interesting challenge and propose
to constructively engage with the Review Team to shape a reformed system
for the delivery of high quality Criminal Defence Services.”
