The information sought by the Deputy may be obtained from the Registrar of the Incorporated Law Society who has a statutory responsibility, under the Solicitors Act, 1954, to maintain the roll of solicitors and to make it available for public inspection during office hours, without payment.
The registrar is also required under the Solicitors Acts to maintain a record of every order of the High Court striking the name of a solicitor off the roll or suspending a solicitor from practice, and also to publish a notice in “Iris Oifigiúil” of any order of the High Court striking a solicitor off the roll or suspending a solicitor from practice.
