Invitation to BSB Presentation on reporting concerns (Northern Circuit) Wednesday 11th September 5.30pm The Bar Standards Board (BSB) is committed to ensuring that reporting of misconduct by barristers, including bullying and harassment within the Bar, is taken seriously. We want to ensure that anyone who wishes to report a concern feels comfortable about doing so. The BSB has launched a series of outreach presentations to inform the Bar about how to report such incidences to us and what steps we will take after receiving a report, including taking disciplinary action. Our sessions will feature a presentation delivered by our staff who deal with reports of concerns about barristers and an opportunity to ask questions. Our next event will take place in the Northern Circuit on Wednesday 11th September, at 5.30pm at Nine St John Street Chambers (9 St John Street, Manchester M3 4DN). Introduced by the Leader of the Northern Circuit, Jaime Hamilton KC, the presentation followed by a Q&A session will last around 90 minutes. Beverages will be kindly provided by Nine St John Street Chambers. All barristers, clerks and administrative staff working within the Bar are welcome to attend, however we are particularly encouraging those who are junior members of the Bar to come along. This session will be hybrid, but we do encourage you to attend in person, if possible. Reserve your place by completing the registration form or emailing communications@barstandardsboard.org.uk.
