Q.37 Do I need to secure tenancy at a set of chambers for commencing full practice?

You must practise at professional chambers of barrister(s) whether as a tenant or squatter. You may also set up your own professional chambers. In any event, business centers or premises shared with persons other than practising barristers are not professional chambers for such purpose.
