The research found that if Legal Aid changes are implemented, we can expect:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fewer social welfare legal issues, especially housing problems, to end in agreement;<\/li>\n<li>More people to give up trying to bring their divorce and relationship breakdown problems to a satisfactory conclusion;\u00a0and<\/li>\n<li>An increase in the demand for tribunal hearings, for a variety of interrelated reasons.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The reports suggests that the risk that poorer people will have a reduced level of access to justice in relation to employment problems compared with the present will need very careful quantification and mitigation.<\/p>\n<p>This research has been made possible by the kind support of the Bar Council.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Author: Laura Bradley, Strategic
