I take up the Minister's offer to listen to the views of the committee members on this question of the staff. Like other Deputies, I have received representations from a constituent who expressed concern about her future employment with the Law Society. She has legitimate concerns. As other Deputies said, we all got a letter from Mandate. Everything should be done to ensure that people who are competent, qualified and doing the job, and who may have long experience in that field, be allowed to transfer or be interviewed, or can go through whatever process is necessary to ensure their employment continues.
