The Bar Standards Board will shortly be looking for new committee members to contribute to its work.
Many of the committees have vacancies for barrister members including the Professional Conduct and Qualifications Committees. The PCC particularly needs barristers with expertise in Family and Immigration Law as well as people with an interest or experience in entity regulation and other regulatory bodies.
Look out for further information about the positions available when applications open in early September.
This is a genuine opportunity to contribute to how the Bar is regulated in the public interest. Please consider putting yourself forward to help shape your future.
Look out for further information – on our website and in the BSB Chair’s Update to the profession – about the positions available when applications open in early September.
