The General Legal Council (GLC) has rubbished claims that lawyers will be required to write examinations before their licenses are renewed.
The Chief Justice, Justice Kwasi Anin-Yeboah is purported to have said lawyers will write exams before their licenses are renewed.
But the General Legal Council in a statement on May 8, clarified that, “The attention of the General Legal Council has been drawn to the erroneous reportage on some media platforms of His Lordship the Chief Justice’s speech given at the enrolment ceremony of 196 Lawyers called to the Bar on Friday, 5th May 2023. There was no mention of lawyers being required to write examinations at all before a renewal of licence and indeed no such amendment to the Law is about to be made”.
