Public Consultation for new Professional Standards Scheme

The South Australian Bar Association (SABA) has applied to the Professional Standards Council of South Australia for approval of a new Professional Standards Scheme to commence on 1 July 2022, when the current Scheme will end.

The Professional Standards Council (PSC) has invited comments and submissions in relation to the proposed Scheme from interested stakeholders, until Wednesday 5 January 2022.

In addition, the PSC welcomes the opinions of members in relation to how the scheme may benefit: (a) consumers of their services; (b) members themselves; and (c) the legal profession more broadly.

The consultation information (including where to direct any comment) is available on the PSC Website HERE.
