dc.description.abstract | At the annual meeting of the English Bar held on the 11th
February, 1928, a discussion arose on the question of legal aid to
poor persons, and the Attorney-General, Sir Douglas Hogg (now
Lord Hailsham) said, in winding up the debate :?
" The generosity of the medical profession was a byword
and an example to the rest of the world, and the lawyers,
although they lagged behind, did more perhaps than was
generally recognised to assure that the poor of this country
had that expert help which they could not otherwise afford.
I should like to see the day coming when just as medicine
administers to all who need it help for the body, so in every
great centre of population we might see something akin to a
legal hospital where the poor people could rely on getting the
advice and help which they needed.' | en |
