Petition Allocate the Crown Prosecution Service funding to reinstate the Legal Traineeship Scheme

More details

A petition requesting that the Government allocate funds to the CPS in order to help the CPS provide Training Contracts to those who have completed their Legal Practice Course and require a Training Contract- with the legal traineeship scheme not in place for the last few years- the Government could help provide the resources needed to take on trainees- the chances of acquiring a Training Contract are very bleak for LPC graduates- and the CPS were recognised for their outstanding trainee scheme- it is important to bring new talent into the field and moreso where an interest in Criminal Law in junior lawyers is fading with cuts to legal aid etc.- bringing new talent to the CPS can bring much interest and passion back into the Criminal Law.
