answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/07/2014 answer text <p>The Government does not currently record the residency status of applicants for civil legal aid so cannot accurately estimate the amount of funding currently received by those who would not satisfy the residence test. However, there is likely to be a reduction in legal aid volumes and expenditure from imposing a residence test on civil legal aid, resulting in savings to the legal aid fund.</p><p> </p><p>We have been clear that the introduction of the residence test supports the principle that legal aid should only be available to those who have a strong connection to this country. This is fair to the taxpayer who pays for it and will help to restore credibility to our legal aid system.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency North West Cambridgeshire answering member printed Mr Shailesh Vara question first answered 07/07/2014 16:32:18 answering member 1496 label Biography information for Shailesh Vara
