Catherine Baksi does a news blog on the LS Gazette website. The current top entry is entitled The true cost of legal aid cuts.
She concludes thus:
Many of these proposals appear to make it harder for vulnerable people to challenge the decisions of public bodies, including the government, and put more control in the hands of the LSC. Taken together with the other legal aid reforms, it presents a very worrying trend.
It does indeed.
In earlier entries she too has spotted the obvious current friction between the LSC and the MoJ.
She draws another conclusion which replicates a number of phone conversations I have had with clients in recent times.
The Law Society running Legal Aid again?
