Clive Booth is correct save that Mr Gove at least made the decision and appears to have listened and seems prepared to engage. I think that all of us need to think more like business people and assess and re-assess what Access to Justice should look like and help create a justice system around that. Thereafter we can create business models to assure Access to Justice.
What we must guard against are special interest groups getting close to Gove and whispering sweet nothings in his shell like to the detriment of the greater number of firms and criminal solicitors.
Much simpler systems of legal aid and a much simpler approach to Duty Solicitor accreditation might be a good place to start.
