#InPictures: Peter Ward SC delivers annual FLAC Justice Lecture
Former FLAC chair and veteran campaigner for constitutional reform Peter Ward SC raised concerns about the coming referendums on family and care at the FLAC Justice Lecture last week.
Mr Ward said constitutional referendums “have provided very special and important occasions where we as a country have made important strides in the evolution of our republic and embracing our citizenry with enhanced rights and recognition”.
However, echoing comments from FLAC, he said it was “certainly difficult to see where there is any concrete gain by anyone in [the current] proposals”.
As part of the event in the King’s Inns, the legal rights group also honoured 18 of its clinic volunteers with its annual Golden Pin awards.
