The first part talks about relaxing the rules.

The second part is talking about a slightly different concept, a big example of which would be that if it's protected by solicitor-client privilege, it's not admissible. But other than that, for somebody to come and make a claim to a court, to make a pitch, he or she doesn't have to hire a lawyer to come before the tribunal. He or she can come and just talk to them.
