Rules relating to the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal

The LSB has today published its decisions on plans to explicitly apply its process to approve rule changes and its compliance and enforcement policy to the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal.

The LSB is amending its rules and policy to provide greater transparency of its processes with regard to approving rule changes made by the Tribunal under section 46(9)(b) of the Solicitors Act 1974 and its power to direct the Tribunal if it fails to perform its functions to an adequate standard.
