I will be presenting to the profession and other stakeholders the proposal that we can enact into law a procedure that allows the sort of payment process that the hon. Member has said. If I were to impose this unilaterally, you can be sure I would have a lot of problems. You know that I have insisted on a disciplinary tribunal which is very unpopular with the profession itself. I would like, on this particular issue, to commence a process of negotiations. Of course, at the end of the day balancing the rights of advocates and those of litigants, we will uphold the rights of litigants if there is a conflict between the two."}
