JustRights held a roundtable event held at Westminster in July to explore the impact of the legal aid bill on children and young people.
The event surfaced widespread concerns from leading children’s and young people’s organisations and MPs, as well as from organisations involved in providing legal advice to children and young people. There was a consensus that amendments are required to the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill to better protect vulnerable children and young people’s access to justice.
