520 _aThe Dispute Resolution Professional Group felt that mandatory rules of conduct for surveyor-advocates were important because surveyor-advocates do frequently appear opposite solicitors and barristers. Those professions are subject to mandatory rules of conduct governing advocacy and with no mandatory rules applying to surveyor-advocates, there was a perception of lower professional standards.

To redress this imbalance, the Practice Statement (PS) requires surveyor-advocates to comply with the same fundamental principles as solicitors and barristers. [see L145697]
