YOUNGER MEMBERS COMMITTEE - LOOKING FORWARD The Younger Members Committee is a Committee of the Council of the Society the members of which are appointed annually by the President and Council of the Society. The Committee includes elected Council Members together wi th representatives from the Professional and Advanced Courses and solicitors from around the country. As the time is drawing near for consideration for appointment of Committees for November 1991 to October 1992 the YMC is keen that solicitors from around the country should be represented on the Committee. In the past both the YMC and the President have written to Bar Associations seeking nominations to the Committee. Looking at the statistics below it can be seen that the profession has a growing number of younger members and a substantial increase in the number of women becoming solicitors. At the moment there are over 3,500 solicitors holding Practisng Certificates

(there are 4,611 solicitors on the Roll of Solicitors). Conscious of the changing structure of the profession in Ireland and of the other forces of change wh i ch will make the professions within Europe a much closer community the YMC would urge that younger solicitors on the ground become involved either in the YMC Committee or become e Network Contect Member for the Committee. It is essential that the YMC represent the views of all the profession and bring these views to the Council of the Society. It is only with the active participation of solicitors that the YMC can achieve this objective. If you would like to become involved in the YMC either at a local or Committee level please write to me at the Law Society, Blackhall Place, Dublin 7 or telephone me at 710711.
