Thanks. Worrying times but great to hear that Solicitors and the Bar appear to be in agreement in finding little, if anything, positive in the Consultation document. Hopefully the persuasive arguments against, as well presented in the very impressive broadcast, will stop the ridiculous proposals from ever being implemented
ReplyDeleteThis week's episode includes an interview from Chairman of the Bar Council, Maura McGowan - see what she says about persuasive arguments. Glad you enjoyed the show.
