Law Society launches EU referendum survey
Reading time: 1 minute
The Law Society of Scotland has launched a survey to find out how the European Union impacts the work of solicitors, ahead of the referendum on whether the UK should remain a member of the EU.
As with last year’s debate on Scottish independence, the Law Society intends to remain neutral on the issue of EU membership.
In the Law Society’s annual survey last year, members said they thought it important for their professional body to remain impartial and not take a position one way or another.
However, the lawyers’ body wants to play a “full and active role in the debate to come” and will hold events and ask searching questions of both sides as the debate moves forward.
The Society has now launched a short online survey, which will be open until 31 July. The feedback received will help shape the organisation’s work over the coming months.
