The Law Society of Ghana (LSG) has said it is worried about the mandate by the General Legal Council (GLC), to up-and-comers who wish to sit for the Law School selection test to sign an endeavor which removes their entitlement to look for review for issues which might emerge out of the assessments.

An assertion gave by LSG said the endeavor, on the off chance that endorsed by the competitors, "will remove their entitlement to demand re-stamping of contents, re-counting of scores or survey of imprints".

The assertion, endorsed by General Secretary Atukwei Quaye, likewise said applicants who sign the endeavor, "can't likewise demand to see their noticeable response scripts or the checking plans utilized for denoting the inquiries".

"By the conditions of the endeavor, any outcomes delivered and distributed by the GLC will be conclusive and no inquiries can be raised about them", LSG noted.

The gathering said its anxiety "emerges basically out of the way that the GLC is the public body laid out by regulation, answerable for the preparation and authorizing of attorneys to rehearse in Ghana as well as managing the act of regulation in Ghana".

The LSG said it "shares the worries raised by the understudies" and some good natured Ghanaians who have denounced this "unreasonable, low, erratic, and inappropriate order from the GLC".

"What precisely is the aim behind this mandate in any case? What is the GLC attempting to accomplish? In the same way as other Ghanaians, the LSG likewise trusts that this mandate, whenever permitted to win, has the probability" of being a "expected conductor to rearing debasement, nepotism, and the maltreatment of force".

"It is essential of note that the GLC, an organization which should prepare and permit legal counselors with moral standards of decency equity, straightforwardness and high uprightness, is, itself, needing to outline a course, which is straightforwardly inverse to such standards and which goes counter to best practices".

"How could a body which looks to prepare individuals to safeguard the freedoms of others, radiate decency and equity attempt to show the exact inverse of such fundamentals?" the gathering pondered.

It said: "The mandate of the GLC is against best practices and we encourage them to be more straightforward as opposed to obscure in their dealings, all things considered".

It added: "In our law as a country, there are roads for change. It is the established right of each Ghanaian to look for change when unsatisfied with an activity by any open body".

"Any such approach with the view to removing the purview of the court isn't adequate".

"The LSG approaches the GLC to pull out the mandate and rather lay out cycles and techniques which will upgrade public certainty through straightforwardness and responsibility. The GLC should realize that public certainty is rapidly disintegrating in the space of lawful training and as an affiliation we unassumingly approach the GLC to rethink their situation to acquire public trust."
