    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as we go along you know that unlike the medical profession, lawyers are not meant to serve Government time even though they study on Government money. I think it is time as a country we applied a programme after the School of Law where lawyers work for the Government and public institutions for a minimum of six months before they go off to the profession. I think that the country would reap a lot of benefits in the Director of Public Prosecutions Office, the investigation department and State counsel departments across the counties. I think that all the law students should not just go to the private sector. There is some value in having those law students also serve some of the Government offices. I think that the new LSK that we are looking at needs to look at those matters as it continues to appreciate the free lawyering time given by pro bono lawyers."
