The signatories to the code are: The Association of Graduate Careers Advisory Services (AGCAS) is the professional body for careers and employability professionals working with higher education students and graduates and prospective entrants to higher education. The Association of Graduate Recruiters (AGR) is an employer-led membership organisation, whose goal it is to ensure that all its members can recruit and develop the best student talent for their needs and the needs of the UK economy.

The Law Society of England and Wales is the independent professional body for solicitors, supporting and representing over 133,000 solicitors practising in England and Wales. Embarking on a training contract (*) is a critical step in a solicitor’s career. This Code allows law and non-law degree students sufficient time to make considered career decisions before committing to this career path and to a particular employer. In doing so, the Code aims to promote diversity and best practice in recruitment in the profession from the entry level. The code also recognises the business needs of employers when candidates are interviewed and offered training contracts.

  • Response to Government Consultation on Moving Land Registry
    City of London Law Society Land Law Committee response to consultation on moving Land Registry operations into the private sector Introduction The City of London Law Society (“CLLS”) represents approximately 17,000 City lawyers through individual and corporate membership including some of the largest international law firms in the world. These law firms advise a variety of clients from multinational companies and financial institutions to Government departments, often in relation to complex, multi-jurisdictional legal issues. The CLLS responds to a variety of consultations on issues of importance to its members through its 19 specialist committees. This response in respect of the Department for Business Innovation and Skills Consultation on moving Land Registry operations into the private sector has been prepared by the CLLS Land Law Committee. This response is given by those members of the Land Law Committee listed at the end of this response. The following individuals/firms have asked to be excluded from this response - Daniel McKimm/Allen & Overy LLP, Jamie Chapman/Ashurst LLP, Ian Waring/Berwin Leighton Paisner LLP, Michael Edwards/Clifford Chance LLP, Bruce Dear/Eversheds LLP, Jayne Elkins/Field Fisher Waterhouse LLP, Victoria Hills/Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP, James Barnes/Herbert Smith Freehills LLP, Martin Elliott/Linklaters LLP, Nick Jones/Simmons & Simmons LLP, John Nevin/Slaughter & May and Alison Hardy/Squire Patton Boggs (UK) LLP.‎ General comments For‎the‎purposes‎of‎our‎comments,‎we‎assume‎that‎a‎private‎company‎(known‎as‎“NewCo”‎in‎the‎ consultation) will take over the Land Registry. We make that assumption because of the tenor of the commentary in the consultation that privatisation with a long term contract between government and a private operator and risk transferred to the latter is the preferred model.
