Legal Practice Council Board Exams 2021

Melissa Murray, Senior Manager of Education and Training at LPC, provided statistics on the success rate of board audits for the 2021 and 2022 periods. Ms Matolo-Dlepu added that Chapter 9 institutions, such as Legal Aid South Africa, should be examined, particularly in terms of how they do things, as many candidates go through these institutions before entering the legal profession. She added that there must be interviews with auditors after each audit so that data can be gathered on the challenges auditors have encountered in assessing audits. Complaints against lawyers are handled by the provincial offices of the Legal Practice Council, depending on where the lawyer works.

Mabunda said Article 5(h) of Law 28 of 2014 on Legal Practice states that LPC shall promote high standards of legal education and training. (This has not yet been implemented and requires that the criteria be established by the Minister in consultation with the LPC.) He also referred to article 5 (i), which deals with the promotion of “access to the profession of lawyer for the exercise of a profession of lawyer that largely reflects the demography of the Republic”. The LPC expressed concern that it had spent R70 million on legal education, but the results of the council`s audits deteriorated. During the discussion, the general opinion was that many candidates were not fully prepared and that the use of previous exam papers gave candidates a false impression of preparation. Mabunda tasked LSSA`s acting executive director, Anthony Pillay, with handling some of the things the LSSA was supposed to investigate, including the cost of legal training and exams.

The LSSA responded that it operates on a cost basis and that if the costs of the LSSA are found to be excessive or inefficient, this could be addressed by competition. The LSSA is not anti-competitive, even though it was an existing accredited provider. In addition, many new suppliers have been accredited. The revised review procedure presented by the LSSA with input from the LSSA Executive Committee was noted and will be discussed in the Education Committee. Mr Pillay told the Assembly that the LSSA was undoubtedly fully committed to transformation and access to the profession. He cautioned that changes in the legal education model need to be properly researched and considered based on costs, including oral exams.

28 of 2014 on Legal Practice. The Council of Legal Practice and its provincial councils regulate matters and exercise jurisdiction over all legal practitioners (lawyers and lawyers) and trainee lawyers. Kathleen Matolo-Dlepu, a member of the LPC and chair of its transformation committee, suggested in her comments that the legal profession should work with universities as applicants come from different institutions so that the profession can know and understand what candidates are learning and how hands-on learning can be implemented in higher education institutions.

Another problem was the lack of skills transfer between candidates with internship contracts (PVT). At the meeting, it was proposed that contracting entities report regularly during PVT contracts. In addition, the rules allowing candidates to register before completing the 23-day short WHV course should be changed. The other concern was the cost of oral examinations. Audit costs amounted to R 15 million per year and the LPC was concerned about the disproportionate cost of oral examinations.
