10 May 2007
Protests against the government’s civil legal aid changes are being planned by the Access to Justice Alliance. Members from various advice organisations will meet in Parliament on Monday 14 May to discuss their strategy.
Alan Beith, chair of the Constitutional Affairs Select Committee—which recently savaged the government’s planned reforms—will speak at the meeting, as will Karen Buck MP, who has continually raised the impact of the reforms on the advice sector. Protests outside county courts and tribunals are being planned and lobbying of newly elected local councillors will also take place.
