An e-petition has been drafted in order to try and force a debate in parliament regarding the threat to the provision of legal aid services contemplated by the Government.
Not only are there plans to reduce access to justice by depriving citizens of legal aid or the right to representation by the Solicitor of their choice, but large public funding cuts will also have a massive effect on the legal services industry.
It is of great importance that matters which carry so much consequence such as this should be decided on the back of correct and formal debate within parliament and not decided without reasonable questioning.
This petition needs 100,000 signatures to force through a debate in parliament; so please feel free to have a read over the finer details and if you feel the same as we do, please sign the petition.
