Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Robert Neill and David Jones

Thursday 9th March 2017 Commons Chamber

[Mr David Jones]

We have had such discussions. The right hon. Gentleman is right to say that we need an adequate supply of skilled labour in this country, and the Home Office is working on policies that will achieve just that.

[Robert Neill (Bromley and Chislehurst) (Con)]

The UK legal services sector is worth some £21 billion to our economy. A good percentage of that comes from legal services provided into the European Union. Will my right hon. Friend meet the Bar Council and the Law Society to discuss what they need to retain access to that key market?
