It was recom mended that instead of requesting the Minister for Justice to bring section 31 of the Solicitors' (Amendment) Act 1960 into operation the Society should itself make regulations dealing with ac countants' certificates under section 66 of the Solicitors' Act 1964. The Council decided to circulate a draft of the regulations and of the proposed accountant's cer tificate with the agenda for the ordinary general meeting, to be held on 19th May, and that no vote will be taken at the meeting, the matter being open for discussion to ascertain the opinion of the members present.
