Having worked as an investigator with the SRA for many years and seeing prosecutions develop, I have to say I find this consultation disturbing. Whilst working for the SRA I also came to see the massive ramifications for the solicitors who were deprived of their living, break up of families etc etc. Yes, some were full deserving for what they had done but, at all stages, I was comforted to some extent by the fact that such a high standard of proof was required. With a decline in the standard of both investigation and case-working at the the SRA a reduction in the burden is a reduction in the right to natural justice.
