The Legal Practice Bill which, similar to the Superior Courts Bill, seeks to unify the legal profession and rationalise the different regulatory structures of the defunct Transkei, Bophuthatswana, Venda and Ciskei, TBVC, states, is premised on the constitutional principle of access to justice. It particularly provides for, among other things, a mechanism for the determination of fees chargeable for obtaining legal services, to ensure that costs of litigation are within the reach of all litigants and community legal service, as part of legal vocational training for new entrants into the legal profession and regularised pro bono work for all legal practitioners.
