The Compromise Agreements (Description of Person) Order 2004 (Amendment) Order 2004
The Compromise Agreements (Description of Person) Order 2004 (“the Principal Order”) enables a Fellow of the Institute of Legal Executives employed by a solicitors' practice validly to give advice in relation to compromise agreements under the Sex Discrimination Act 1975, the Race Relations Act 1976, the Trade union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, the Disability Discrimination Act 1995, the Employment Rights Act 1996, the National Minimum Wage Act 1998, the Part-time Workers (Prevention of Less Favourable Treatment) Regulations 2000 (SI 2000/1551) and the Fixed-term Employees (Prevention of Less Favourable Treatment) Regulations 2002 (SI 2002/2034). This Order amends the Principal Order by removing the condition that that Order imposes upon such a Fellow, namely that he is supervised by a solicitor holding a practising certificate issued by the Law Society of England and Wales.
