Well, when you apply to come off the record you don’t inform the other side.....

I always played a straight bat with LIPs and treated them with the courtesy to be expected but kept careful notes.

We were always made to have carriage of orders which would ordinarily be the LIP’s responsibility.

Once I was asked by a Master to provide a transcript of her judgment (recording equipment failed) which was tricky. My notes would say, for example, when the judgment cited a case: X v Y. Para 54..... B v C para 2....etc. Transcribing that lot took 5 hours.

More to the point, what duties do LIPs owe? They are the ones who apply to court without telling you.

I cant see there is any need for a regulation to do what would always have been done under the old conduct rules.
