Martin Partington: Spotlight on the Justice System

Welcome to 2011 – the year when many of the policies outlined by the Coalition Government start to take shape. Among developments to watch will be:
1 Impact of the Legal Services Act 2007 on shaping the legal profession and how they deliver legal services;
2 Sentencing policy – will the plans outlined by the Lord Chancellor survive political pressures within the Government?
3 Legal aid – what will remain of legal aid, particularly civil legal aid and how will legal services to the poor actually be delivered?
I will try to keep you up to date in the blog.
Meantime, have a very happy New Year!
