Draft Policy

Purpose of consultation
We are looking for feedback from our justice partners to help us establish a policy for determining the risk level and managing risk management for community legal clinics and student legal services organizations under the Legal Aid Services Rules. The proposed policy is part of LAO’s risk-based, proportional approach to the oversight of transfer payments and entity service providers.
It is important that our work is informed by meaningful consultation and dialogue. We hope to consult with as many people as possible and gain the benefit of a broad range of perspectives.
