The Bar Council and Law Society will contribute to a review of social mobility led by MP Alan Milburn. The review, which aims to improve the prospects of state educated candidates seeking to enter the professions, was launched this month. The Bar Council is currently implementing Lord Neuberger’s 2007 inquiry into the social background of barristers, which made 57 recommendations. Bar Council chairman, Desmond Browne QC, says there are no “quick fixes”, and the process of ensuring diversity at the Bar should start at school.
