It was not for your information Petey it was for lookout and Steph. I think they also are aware of the role of the duty solicitor, but it appears that possible one of them or noth have experienced some anomaly in regard to this service that is provided free of charge by the police?
With respect, duty solicitors are not provided by the police!
The right to a duty solicitor is a legal right, granted on arrest, save in extreme circumstances.
Duty solicitors are managed by the legal aid agency (Part of m of j), NOT the police.
