  • The Legal Services Act 2007: an Act of Revolution for the Legal Profession? 1
    May 2011 THE LEGAL SERVICES ACT 2007: AN ACT OF REVOLUTION FOR THE LEGAL PROFESSION? 1 Michael Zander QC FBA Emeritus Professor, London School of Economics Introduction From the 1960s, for forty or so years, I took a close interest in the affairs of the legal profession but it is now quite a number of years since I have published anything on the subject. I was therefore very pleased to be invited to give a lecture on this topic as it gave me the stimulus to try to get to grips with what has been happening as a result of the passing of the Legal Services Act. Since most of you are lawyers who have no doubt been reading about the Act and its implications for several years, it would obviously be inappropriate to go through it as if this was new legislation requiring explication. Rather I thought it might be of interest to attempt to take some measure of its significance, both in terms of the historical perspective and looking forward. Before doing so, I should say something about my own stance in regard to the broad topic ‘reform of the legal profession’. This was the issue that first drew me to an academic career. When I left Cambridge in 1957, my intention had been to go to the Bar. But after a postgraduate year at Harvard Law School, I spent a year with the great Wall Street law firm of Sullivan & Cromwell. That experience changed everything. First, it led me to decide that the work I wanted to do was corporate law with a firm of City solicitors.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by UK Government (CPP0009)
    Written evidence submitted by UK Government (CPP0009) 02 March 2021 Northern Ireland Affairs Committee Inquiry into Citizenship and Passport Processes in Northern Ireland Dear Chair, Thank you for the opportunity to provide evidence to the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee in relation to the Committee’s inquiry into Citizenship and Passport Processes in Northern Ireland. The work of the Committee, including the critical role it plays in Parliamentary scrutiny, is of the utmost importance to the Government. The Government is fully committed to the Belfast Agreement, the constitutional principles it upholds, and the rights it protects. This includes the birthright provision, which protects the rights of all the people of Northern Ireland to identify themselves and be accepted as Irish or British or both, as they may so choose, and the right to hold both British and Irish citizenship. To support the Committee’s inquiry, the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland has asked that I write to you, with the support of the Minister for Future Borders and Immigration, Kevin Foster MP, to provide detailed evidence in response to the inquiry’s terms of reference. UKG response to the terms of reference 1. The interaction between UK nationality law and the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement, and any engagement with the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The introductory remarks to the Committee’s inquiry1 state that the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement: “guarantees the right of the people of Northern Ireland to identify as British, Irish or both

  • Barriers to the Legal Profession
    Barriers to the legal profession Rosaline Sullivan July 2010 1 Introduction “Increasingly, children‟s success at school determines their success as adults, determining whether and where they go to college (university), what profession they enter, and how much they are paid” (Buckham and Lee, 2002). The provision of legal services at the highest levels and in the most prestigious firms is dominated by white, male lawyers from the highest socio-economic groups. Our belief is that such an outcome does not occur as a result of overt discrimination but instead barriers to entry and progression occur over the lifetime of individuals seeking a career in law from initial education, to training, to gaining experience within a law firm. This paper explores each stage that an individual follows in pursuing a career in law and the evidence that can help explain the socio-economic characteristics of lawyers we see in England and Wales. Overall purpose of research The Legal Services Board (LSB) has been formed to reform and modernise the regulation of the legal services market place in the interests of consumers. One focus of the LSB‟s first year was on “promoting access to a diverse profession”. In 2010/11 the LSB extends this area of focus to “developing a workforce for a changing market”, enabling us to consider more widely what consumers and procurers of legal services need, want and should be able to expect from the legal workforce. Promoting a legal workforce that is open to the widest pool of talent is recognised across the sector and government as a priority area.

  • R (On the Application of Johnson) (Appellant) V Secretary of State for the Home Department (Respondent)
    Michaelmas Term [2016] UKSC 56 On appeal from: [2016] EWCA Civ 22 JUDGMENT R (on the application of Johnson) (Appellant) v Secretary of State for the Home Department (Respondent) before Lady Hale, Deputy President Lord Kerr Lord Reed Lord Hughes Lord Toulson JUDGMENT GIVEN ON 19 October 2016 Heard on 25 and 26 July 2016 Appellant Respondent Hugh Southey QC Tim Eicke QC Paul Turner Edward Brown (Instructed by Barnes (Instructed by The Harrild and Dyer) Government Legal Department) LADY HALE: (with whom Lord Kerr, Lord Reed, Lord Hughes and Lord Toulson agree) 1. The fundamental issue in this case is a simple one. Is it compatible with the European Convention on Human Rights to deny British citizenship to the child of a British father and a non-British mother simply because they were not married to one another at the time of his birth or at any time thereafter? If the parents had been married to one another, their child would have been a British citizen. If the mother had been British and the father non-British, their child would have been a British citizen. If the child had been born after 1 July 2006 he would have been a British citizen. The child is not responsible for the marital status of his parents or the date of his birth, yet it is he who suffers the consequences. 2. There are many benefits to being a British citizen, among them the right to vote, the right to live and to work here without needing permission to do so, and everything that comes along with those rights.
