Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what plans he has to support the UK legal services sector before and after the UK leaves the EU.

The UK is a world leader in the provision of legal services and English law has a reputation for excellence across the world. The reputation of the UK’s Courts, Judiciary and legal services sector will continue after we leave the EU, and we will build on this to make the most of the opportunities of post-Brexit global Britain. We also continue to promote our excellent legal services overseas, and launched our ‘Legal Services are GREAT’ campaign last month, to highlight the UK’s position as a premier legal centre.”
