Law Society to release audit report on workplace issues after redaction process

The Law Society announced it will release the full audit report on workplace culture and governance issues on August 20, following requests from its members. The audit committee, which conducted the investigation independently of the council, appointed TSMP Law Corporation to probe allegations of poor workplace culture and governance.

The audit committee gave interviewees until September 7 to request redactions before the report's release, allowing them to redact their names and transcripts if desired. Interviewees can also redact portions of their transcripts, with corresponding redactions made to the TSMP report. Members will have until September 7 to respond, after which their statements will not be disclosed.

Those facing material allegations will receive a right of response, with individuals not invited to participate in the investigation given up to September 21 to respond. The TSMP report will be redacted based on interviewee feedback, and the full audit report will be released as soon as practicable afterward.
