Inside the Dublin District Court where some people are representing themselves
About this episode
The episode discusses the impact of solicitors walking out on legal aid cases in Dublin and features insights on the housing market in Ireland.
It's just over a week since solicitors walked out and refused to handle legal aid cases in a row over a new payment scheme. Reporter Dyane Connor joins Paul from the district court in Dublin and shares stories from today's sittings where in some cases, people are representing themselves or being sent back to jail as they have no legal representation. Later, reporter Tania Reut discusses how many years of salary buys a home in Ireland versus Europe. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
