Linda Mulcahy has been elected to the Council of JUSTICE which seeks to advance the fair administration of justice and to persuade decision-makers by the strength of their legal research and reasoned argument. Over the years, JUSTICE has maintained a reputation for being far-sighted, independent and practical in its approach to law reform. Linda has been involved with the work that JUSTICE has been doing on the abolition of the dock in criminal proceedings and was part of the working party which recently produced a report on 'What is a Court?'
