The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she has made an assessment of the potential implications for her policies of the decision to remove remote testing for the LSAT by the US Government.

Answered by Mike Tapp

The LSAT is an admissions test administered by the Law School Admission Council (LSAC), an independent US organisation. Decisions relating to the format and delivery of the LSAT, including any changes to remote testing, are a matter for LSAC and the relevant US authorities, and do not fall within the remit of the UK Government.

The Honourable Member may therefore wish to raise this matter directly with LSAC or the appropriate authorities in the United States.
