The Legal Services Ombudsman has jurisdiction under section 22 of the Courts and Legal Services Act 1990 to investigate allegations about the manner in which a complaint made to a professional body has been dealt with by that body. This Order extends that jurisdiction to include the Institute of Trade Mark Attorneys. This is consequent on the Institute becoming authorised to grant rights of audience and rights to conduct litigation to its members under sections 27 and 28 of the 1990 Act by the Institute of Trade Mark Attorneys Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/240).
