ROBUST discussions are expected at the 21st Attorney-General’s Conference that was opened by acting Chief Justice Kamal Kumar in the last hour.

Chief Justice Kumar said the conference had grown significantly over the last 20 one years and continued to grow every year, which he added was a sign of a healthy legal system in place.

“No doubt areas covered and dealt with during the Attorney-General’s Conference affect our work as judicial officers, legal practitioners and the public at large, and this could be the reason for such large turnout,” he said.

“I note that this conference has able and qualified members of the panel from various sectors of our community to make presentations and clarify issues relating to various areas of practice.”

The first conference more than two decades ago was attended by some 50 attendees and this has now grown to 478 attending the two-day event, he noted.

The presentations will range from Property Opportunities, Alternate Dispute Resolution, and Right to Health, Right to Privacy, E-Filing and the Need for Weed – Legal Medicinal Marijuana.

Notable attendees include AG Aiyaz-Sayed Khaiyum, RFMF deputy commander Brigadier-General Mohammed Aziz, judges and lawyers.

The event is held at the Natadolas Intercontinental Fiji Golf Resort and Spa.
