Here is the bill proposing the second round of amendments to the Legal Profession Act, 2004 (Vic.), the Justice Legislation (Further Amendment) Bill, 2006 (Vic.). There are substantial changes to practising certificates and costs disclosure requirements on which I will report when I have digested them.
And the second draft of the National Model Provisions has been released by the Law Council (if you follow the link you need to scroll to the bottom of the page). I got a bit worried when I heard that there was going to be a renumbering of the Acts, but apparently everyone else is going to follow Victoria’s numbering so I will continue to beaver away at understanding the complexity occasioned by the simplification process.
