LSB on education

LSB release statutory guidance on LETR

Regulators should not place limits on the numbers entering the profession and should not predetermine how education and training is provided, the Legal Services Board (LSB) has said in its statutory guidance for the Legal Education and Training Review, published this week. LSB chair, David Edmonds, says: “My view has always been that a liberalised legal services market will function more effectively if there is a more flexible labour market. [This] statutory guidance is designed to be a catalyst for modernisation of the regulatory framework for education and training.”
