I move amendment No. 201:

In page 79, between lines 35 and 36, to insert the following:"(f) specify the cost to the client of the services specified in paragraphs (a)to (e)inclusive".

It is vital that legal practitioners state the cost of their services. We discussed this on the previous occasion. I wish the point to be considered most seriously, that complaints about legal costs and unexpected increases in costs are just as important as any of the other items, from paragraphs (a) to (d). I am pressing the amendment most strongly.
