You could also call this:

Illustration for Legal Services Act 2011

If you have rights under the Legal Services Act 2011, it does not change the rights of other people involved in a court case. Your rights also do not affect how a court or tribunal usually makes decisions. You can find similar information in the 2000 No 42 s 115 legislation.
