Solicitors Act, 1954

Qualification for holding office of former barrister.

75.—For the purposes of a statutory provision or custom whereby the qualification of a solicitor for holding an office depends on his having been admitted and enrolled for a particular period, that period shall, in the case of a solicitor who before admission was a barrister, be reckoned as if he had been admitted and enrolled on the date on which he was called to the bar.
