Barristers to discuss failure to reverse pay cuts implemented during the recession

More than 300 barristers across the country are affected by the cuts which were introduced at a number of different points between 2008 and 2011.

Criminal barristers will meet in Dublin on Monday to discuss their concerns that cuts made to legal aid fees during the recession have not been reversed.

The meeting at the Criminal Courts of Justice follows a meeting in Cork last Tuesday, as well as a virtual meeting held on Thursday.
