Administrative / biographical background:

The Legal Services Board (LSB) was created in 2008 by the Legal Services Act of 2007. It became fully active on 1 January 2010 when the new regulatory regime was activated by statute. LSB's roles and responsibilities include: the regulation of approved regulators, oversight of the Office of Legal Complaints, the recommendation of amendments for the list of reserved legal activities, and setting up voluntary arrangements to improve standards (if required).

LSB is a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Ministry of Justice. The set-up and ongoing costs of it are met entirely by a levy on practitioners within the legal sector, so the body is both politically and financially independent from Government.
