Government Cuts to Legal Aid Would Launch New Era of InjusticeMay 17, 2002 - 11:00pm
The BC Legal Services Society issued a press release (in PDF) after the BC Liberal GOvernment responded to their requests for addition Legal Aid funding. The Government was unwilling to restore or funding to the Legal Services Society and is saying that the funding cuts will not live British Columbians vulnerable, but that the government will help Legal Services connect clients with aid outside of the court process. However, Legal Services does not think this is a realistic solution. ( categories: News | British Columbia | Legal Aid )
