Legal Services (Distribution of Special Fund) Amendment Bill
Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.
This bill would broaden the use of the Lawyers and Conveyancers’ Special Fund to include functions that enable, facilitate, or otherwise support the provision of community legal services.MP in charge
