MinLaw aware of police investigations arising from LawSoc audit, says council members will cooperate fully
The Law Society had said in August that it would release the full report of the audit after a redaction process, following calls from its members and Law Minister Edwin Tong to do so.
The Ministry of Law (MinLaw) revealed on Tuesday (Sep 22) that the police are probing matters raised in the recent audit into workplace complaints at the Law Society of Singapore (LawSoc). MinLaw did not disclose further details on the ongoing investigations. The Law Society and its council members are expected to cooperate fully with the police on this matter, as stated by a ministry spokesperson. The police have confirmed receiving a report about the issues raised in the audit and are currently looking into the matter.
