I have heard about all sorts of attempts to regulate lawyers. I have always been sceptical about self-regulating professions. I am a member of two professions which claim to be self-regulating. The Houses of the Oireachtas are self-regulated and much thanks we get from the public for it. The engineering profession, of which I am also a member, is self-regulated to a degree. It would like to have more capacity for self-regulation and I know that if it got those powers the first thing it would do would be to attempt to restrict entry, which is the natural instinct of all self-regulating professions.
