“Piers Gardner has worked closely with Laurent from the beginning of the project. He is also the Bar Council’s nominated expert, UK delegate and chair of the CCBE Permanent Delegation to the European Court of Human Rights. The delegation act as a sounding board for the Council of Europe ministers and court. Piers explains the idea of proposing a new convention for lawyers was born out of the need to protect access to the profession, protect the exercise of the profession and protect the operation of lawyers’ professional organisations.”
