Legal Services Regulatory Authority

Summary

Deputy McGrath asks when the overdue authority under the Legal Services Regulation Act will be established; the Taoiseach will provide an implementation date.

The Legal Services Regulation Act 2015 has been enacted for a full 12 months, yet there is still no sign of the regulatory authority being set up. People are being charged enormous fees and significant issues arise in that regard. When will the regulatory authority which underpins the Act be set up?

As Deputy McGrath said, the legislation was enacted in 2015. I will advise the Deputy when the Act will be implemented.
