BSB pauses new applications to requalify by foreign lawyers
"The Bar Standards Board (BSB) is pausing work on new applications from foreign lawyers looking to requalify as barristers as it continues to struggle with the number of them, Legal Futures can reveal."
Thank you guys in Pakistan and Bangladesh, you helped shutdown the process itself:
"The surge has come mainly from the Indian sub-continent, particularly Pakistan and Bangladesh, and the BSB’s principal concern has been that many apply with no intention to practise in England and Wales – but that there is a benefit to having the status."
