Swift moves new laws for legal aid in Canberra
Canberra acts bring the Australian Legal Aid Office into full capacity under a weekend law. Attorney-General Enderby says the act allows hires without practising certificates to act as solicitors in the office. Private solicitors in the ACT must hold certificates after articles or four months at the Legal Workshop. The ordinance amends the Legal Practitioners Ordinance following an ACT Supreme Court ruling curtailing office regulation.

Lawyers clash over ACT Bar Association criticism
The ACT Bar Association President Warwick Johnson says Canberra residents needing legal aid are treated as second class citizens by MP and Attorney General Enderby. He warns the ALAC could be gutted by ineligible pollonar practitioners while Enderby defends the ordinance as necessary to provide service and uphold court processes. The Law Society and Bar Association dispute the provisions with accusations of preemptive strikes and concerns about independence and access to legal advice.
