Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Legal Services Regulatory Authority: Discussion

9:00 am

Dr. Don Thornhill:

That is a very well-placed question.

We are doing some hard thinking about what we would like to see in an amended version of the Act. For example, let us consider the specific instance of legal education and imagine the current providers have provisions that prevent people from qualifying unless they have gone through the current educational institutions. If a report were to suggest that there was room for more dynamic and varied provision arrangements, then that is something that would have to be challenged. I will not go any further than that at the moment.
