FOCUS OF THE DAY: Barrister-owned entities will need to have at least £500,000 indemnity cover per claim, the Bar Standards Board (BSB) has confirmed. The minimum terms apply to all BSB-regulated entities. Entities are businesses owned and managed by lawyers, which concentrate on activities such as advocacy, client representation in court and giving specialist advice. The BSB, which is due to start regulating entities next month, has received more than 75 expressions of interest and 16 completed applications so far. Providing confirmation about the necessary insurance arrangements is expected to encourage further interest. Full story - New Law Journal

FOCUS OF THE DAY: The Legal Aid Agency has set new deadlines for crime duty tender contracts following this morning’s Court of Appeal decision to dismiss a challenge by the Law Society and practitioner groups. An injunction suspending the tender process expires today after the court refused to extend it until Monday while the Law Society seeks to take its case to the Supreme Court. The tender process for 527 new duty provider contracts will continue on Friday and closes at midday on 5 May. Full story - The Law Society Gazette

FOCUS OF THE DAY: Safeguards proposed by the government to protect legal professional privilege (LPP) from sweeping state surveillance powers are inadequate and lawyers’ communications should be explicitly protected by legislation, the Law Society has urged. Responding to a Home Office consultation on two draft codes of practice pursuant to section 71 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 – which ended last week – Chancery Lane complained that the proposed codes provided little improvement on what it characterised as the “officials making aware and ministers taking care” approach of the current codes. It argued legislative protection for LPP should replace them. Full story - Legal Futures
