I move amendment No. 158:


In page 65, between lines 34 and 35, to insert the following:
“Notification of Authority of commencement, cessation of provision of legal services by multi-disciplinary practice
75. (1) A multi-disciplinary practice that intends to provide legal services—
(a) shall notify the Authority, in accordance with subsection (3), of that fact, and
(b) shall not provide such services until it has complied with paragraph (a).
(2) A multi-disciplinary practice that ceases providing legal services shall—
(a) notify the Authority, in accordance with subsection (3), of that fact, and
(b) having complied with paragraph (a), shall not provide legal services without providing the Authority with a further notification under subsection (1).
(3) A notification under subsection (1) or (2) shall be in writing and in such form as may be prescribed.”.
