Question:60 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Justice if he will make illegal the solicitor/client aspect charges which are used by some solicitors to receive extra payments from their clients over the above costs awarded by the courts; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
I propose to take Questions Nos. 44 and 60 together.
My proposals for change in the law relating to the solicitors' profession will be included in the Solicitors (Amendment) Bill, which I will be circulating to Deputies very shortly.
