The purpose of the event is to allow role players to debate the challenges raised during the research as well as proposing necessary interventions needed. It is also to ensure that oversight and public participation is enhanced by creating a platform for the legal fraternity sectors in the province on engaging with the Members of the Provincial Legislature.
The event will be attended by 300 stakeholders from different sectors including the Legal Aid, Black Lawyers Association, Department of Social Development and the South African Police Services.
