In 2014, Professor Gus John published the Independent Comparative Case Review looking at fairness in the SRA’s enforcement processes and made several recommendations. In December 2020, the SRA for the first time since 2014, reported on the diversity characteristics of the people involved in the enforcement processes. As with all previous external reports, the SRA confirm that there is still over representation of people from Black and Asian backgrounds throughout the SRA enforcement processes.
Join the Black Solicitors Network on 20 April as Jane Malcolm and Siân Hughes from SRA present the findings and set out what steps are being taken to reduce this disproportion.
