Finally, I attended a conference last year in the midlands at which it was said that it was quite difficult in domestic violence situations to obtain family law solicitors even though another scheme was in place. Are the wages or salaries of employees tied to some other scale which leads to difficulties? It is not the same as someone working in the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, for example. Is that the reason it is difficult to recruit into family law centres, for example?
