This question was answered on 23rd October 2019
Under the framework established by the Legal Services Act 2007, the legal profession in England and Wales, and the bodies that regulate it, are independent from government. It is the responsibility of the Legal Services Board, as oversight regulator, to ensure that the approved regulators are complying with the regulatory objectives set out in the 2007 Act.
