On 22 April 2025, the Legal Sector Charter Council (LSCC) was established. Part of the Notice included the following:

 “The LSCC will soon undertake a number of stakeholder engagement sessions aimed at

• clarifying the provisions of the LSC; and

• responding to any queries stakeholders may have.

The LSCC also wishes to advise that the Legal Sector Transformation Fund has been established. Legal practitioners and stakeholders wishing to contribute to the Legal Sector Transformation Fund will soon be able to do so. A separate communication will be issued by no later than 30 April providing further details.

The LSCC is committed to assisting all practitioners and stakeholders with any information they require in order to ensure clarity on compliance with the LSC. While it is in the process of setting up a website, a dedicated email address is included herein in order for stakeholders to in the meantime communicate with the LSCC. The LSCC will endeavour to respond to such queries in a timely manner. Queries can be sent to: info@lscc.org.za.”
