PRESENTATION OF CERTIFICATES
Mr. Thomas V. O'Connor, President, speaking at the
Presentation of Parchments to young solicitors at Solici-
tors' Buildings, Four Courts, Dublin 7, on Thursday
6 December 1973, stressed the qualities of integrity and
service to the community which the profession of solici-
tor entailed.
Young solicitors were, as is customary, advised to
join organisations such as the Free Legal Aid Centres
to help people in less fortunate circumstances than
themselves, as well as the Law Society, the Solicitors'
Benevolent Association, and their local Bar Association.
While much remains to be done in the matter of
legal aid for poor people in Ireland, he said, a start
had been made on a voluntary basis in Dublin.
He also recommended new members of the pro-
fession to join the staff of an established office rather
than set up on their own. In this way they would
acquire a knowledge of handling routine work and the
"know how" of getting along with clients and collea-
gues.
Mr. O'Connor, stressing the need to continue the
study of Law, said that to keep abreast of the pace of
output of all present-day legislation might at times
seem an insuperable task, particularly now that Euro-
pean Community Law had become part of Irish Law.
