SLCC budget proposals provide levy stability
The Scottish Legal Complaints Commission has announced its budget proposals for 2010/2011. This will be the SLCC’s third budget for its second full year of operation. Set up by the Scottish Government under the Legal Profession and Legal Aid (Scotland) Act 2007, the SLCC investigates complaints made by members of the public about services provided by legal practitioners in Scotland. The Commission opened for business on 1 October 2008 and although operating wholly independently of the legal profession, it is funded by legal practitioners in Scotland through the payment of an annual levy and charges imposed when a complaint is upheld.
