Legal aid provides a crucial safety net to make sure that everyone can access justice. It provides a key service protecting the welfare and liberty of some of the most vulnerable members of our community. Even so, the Government has announced plans to make savage cuts.
The Government's Green Paper "Proposals for the Reform of Legal Aid in England and Wales" proposes drastic cuts from the legal aid budget.
'The Case for Legal Aid' features interviews with Shami Chakrabarti: Director of Liberty, Michael Mansfield QC and Laura Janes: Chair of Young Legal Aid Lawyers.
