Stephen McNamara appointed as barrister member of the Inns Conduct Committee


1st March 2024

‘Further to Stephen’s appointment last year by the President of the Council of the Inns of Court to The Bar Tribunals & Adjudication Service pool of panellists sitting on disciplinary tribunals and Inns’ Conduct Committee panels, we are pleased to announce his selection by The Honourable Society of Gray’s Inn for appointment as a barrister member of the Inns’ Conduct Committee (ICC).’

 

The role of the members of the ICC is to:

 

  • Work to ensure that appropriate policies and processes are in place to determine whether persons are eligible for admission to an Inn or Call to the Bar by considering whether they are fit and proper persons to become practising barristers;
  • Serve as members of Screening Panels; considering documentation from the Inns about applicants/students to determine the appropriate subsequent handling of any case. In particular, to decide whether there is information that suggests that an individual may not be a fit and proper person to become a practising barrister;
  • Recognise that it is the intention of the four Inns of Court that membership of the Inns should reflect the diversity of society, and apply the principles of this in all their work
