BAR CIRCULARS - NON-RESTRICTED

The Bar Association publishes Circulars to its members. These appear weekly and further as required when the Council, Chairman or Hon. Sec. have matters to draw to members' attention.

Members are expected to be conversant with their contents. Amendments and additions to the Code of Conduct are published to the Bar by means of the Circulars pursuant to paragraph 2 of the Code

Bar Circulars prior to 28th July 2003 appear in the Members area of this website. Bar Circulars issued on and after 28th July 2003 are generally public and can be found in this section: Bar Circulars. Members are also able to read those Circulars which the Bar Council has decided should not be published generally by use of their password. Members who do not have a password for this site should click here to obtain one.
