I appreciate that. Before a barrister is given a case, does the Office of the Attorney General set a fee or a rate? Although one cannot set a fee, given that a case could go on twice or three times as long as anticipated, there should be a structure for calculating the fee. Is it agreed beforehand or afterwards?
