  • 100 Years of Women in Law
    28TH NOVEMBER 2019 100 Years of Women in Law Professor Jo Delahunty QC The Bar in 2020 – Women and the Bar: A Sticky Floor and the Glass Ceiling and Widening the Gender Debate: Where is the Bar in terms of Ethnicity, Sexuality, Disability, and Social Mobility? Introduction In October 2017 I delivered a lecture on the position of women at the Bar, looking at our profession’s ability to attract, retain and elevate female entrants as their skills warranted. As I then made plain: I had approached the lecture fully anticipating I would ultimately be celebrating the achievements of women at the Bar. I was misguided. I concluded that able women had been failed by their profession. The Bar leaked talent from an entry base line of equality. While the ratio of women to men at both pupillage and tenancy was 51% to 49%, (women slightly in the ascendancy) by 5 years call women comprised 45% of the self- employed Bar and by 15 years+ call this had dived to 29 %. Women are more likely to leave the profession if they had experienced discrimination or harassment, if they were BAME, or if they have primary caring responsibilities for children. The loss of senior junior women barristers reduced the pool from which silk applicants are drawn. Men made up 87% of all self-employed QCs.1 Gender composition of the Bar by length of Call (Source: Bar Standards Board data, 1 December 2016) Since the ranks of senior judiciary are largely drawn from the QC coterie, that silk pool, drained of female talent, had a knock-on effect in terms of representation of women in the judiciary.
