Vol. 267 No. 3

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Legal Aid.

56.

asked the Minister for Justice if he is aware of the announcement by the British Lord Chancellor outlining a new legal aid scheme in Britain whereby solicitor's advice will be brought within the reach of many more UK citizens who may not necessarily be involved in litigation; and if he will bear this development in mind in any introduction of a new scheme for the Republic.

I am aware of the scheme referred to. The question of whether legal advice should be provided for in any scheme of legal aid ultimately decided upon for this country is a matter that will be borne in mind.
