Junta de Andalucia settles debt owed to lawyers

The Junta de Andalucia has today paid €6.5 million to the Andalucian Council of Bar Associations to ensure that the legal aid system continues to function. The Junta also paid €7.4 million in February and March as part of a commitment to settle outstanding debts with 7,000 lawyers providing legal aid services.

The lawyers solicited an agreement in which the Junta de Andalucia settled its debts for 2012 within three months.

The legal aid system benefited around 300,000 Andalucians in 2012.
