  "long_title": "Section 89 of the Courts and Legal Services Act 1990 (c.41) (“the 1990 Act”) provides for the maintenance of a register of foreign lawyers and empowers the Law Society to make rules to regulate matters such as professional practice, the keeping of accounts, the delivery of accountants’ reports and the maintenance of professional indemnity cover by registered foreign lawyers who are members, with solicitors, of multi-national partnerships or managers of recognised bodies. Section 89(5) and (6) of the 1990 Act empowers the Lord Chancellor by order to provide that certain enactments or instruments shall have effect with respect to registered foreign lawyers as they have effect with respect to solicitors, subject to such additions, omissions or other modifications as the Lord Chancellor sees fit to specify in the Order. The term “registered foreign lawyer” is defined in section 89(9) of the 1990 Act.",
