BC NDP government considers legislation to modernize legal regulation, creating a single regulator for lawyers, notaries, and paralegals; critics fear increased government control and reduced bar independence.
British Columbia's NDP government is considering legislation to modernize the regulation of lawyers, raising concerns about government overreach and potential loss of independence in the legal system.
The proposed changes aim to create a single legal regulator for lawyers, notaries, and paralegals under one umbrella.
Critics worry that the new regulator board may not guarantee a majority of elected lawyers, leading to increased government control over the legal profession, and potentially reducing the bar's independence.
