Overview
There is nothing more important to a barrister's practise than a sound knowledge of the principles of Professional Conduct and an ability to apply them. In its 'First Report on Legal Education and Training' (April 1996) the Lord Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Legal Education and Conduct identified 'The Ethical Challenge' as one of the foremost challenges in the future education and training of lawyers. This Manual provides the materials and practical guidance with which intending barristers can begin to meet the ethical challenge. It includes the full text of the Code of Conduct for the Bar of England and Wales with which all barristers must be familiar. By isolating, analysing and encouraging students to apply the provisions of the Code the Manual gives a grounding on what might be called 'traditional' or 'vocational' Professional Conduct. In addition the Manual looks at Professional Conduct issues in a broader ethical context. It includes the summary of the Equality Code for the Bar, extracts from Lord Justice Brooke on 'Treating People Fairly' and from Barbara Hewson on 'Harassment: Law and Professional Ethics'. There are also Judicial Studies Board papers on matters, such as 'Body Language and Cross-Cultural Communication'. The barrister's responsibilities against a framework of ethical considerations that extend beyond the confines of the Code of Conduct are also examined
