SRA Consultation Response

On 20 December 2017, YLAL responded to the latest consultation by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) on its plans to introduce a Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE).

The consultation, ‘Looking to the future: phase two of our Handbook reforms’, concerns a number of issues, including the introduction of the SQE and the streamlining of the SRA’s current character and suitability requirements for solicitors.

YLAL would like to thank Placida Ojinnaka, Jonathan Law and Jack Davies for their help in preparing this response.
