What of the irrationality of basing policy decisions on false data/assumptions.
The Law Society and MoJ assume duty solicitors are the highest paid employees in criminal defence firms. Yet in every firm I've worked for, crown court clerks and reps were paid much more than the employed duty solicitors.
We can't know what structure the 2015 contract would take if this false assumption was corrected, but it's a pretty safe bet to guess it would be different.
