THE 2007 SURVEY
AT the end of November 2007 the Employed Barristers’ Committee (EBC) of the Bar Council undertook a ‘Survey of the Employed Bar’ to find out more about the profile of employed barristers, their backgrounds and interests, the issues that affected employed practitioners and the matters that they thought the EBC - as their representatives – should prioritise in 2008. The results of this Survey are not representative of the employed Bar as a whole but they give a good indication of practitioners’ concerns and provide the EBC with important feedback.

body, the Bar Council:
