Almost 50 LL.B graduates have signaled their interest to join a programme aimed at recruiting them for training as prosecutors in the magistracy, Attorney General (AG) and Minister of Legal Affairs Anil Nandlall has said.
Prior to his presentation on the initiative during the budget debate last Friday, Nandlall had said that the initiative would transform the quality of representation that victims of crimes and the state receive in the magistracy.
However, APNU+AFC shadow minister Roysdale Forde SC rubbished the plan, calling it a “knee jerk reaction” to a problem by the government.
