The International Committee is delighted to announce Mark Mulholland QC, Chairman of the Bar Council of Northern Ireland, as the keynote speaker at its Sixth Annual International Rule of Law Conference. This annual lecture aims to stimulate debate and inspire barristers to become involved in rule of law related work. Barristers, judges and law students are all welcome to attend.
Mr Mulholland will share his experiences from appearing in some of the key cases that arose from the ‘troubles’ in Northern Ireland and will explore what has subsequently been learnt regarding the development of the rule of law at an international level. The title of the lecture will be announced closer to the time.
The lecture is accredited with 1.5 CPD hours by the Bar Standards Board and is kindly supported by Inner Temple. Admission is free.
