Police are investigating issues identified in an audit report commissioned by the Law Society, according to sources familiar with the matter. The professional body has been directed not to distribute the report's contents pending the conclusion of the police inquiry.
The audit examined workplace complaints within the organisation, and the findings have prompted law enforcement involvement. The restriction on disclosure underscores the sensitive nature of the matters under investigation.
No further details regarding the specific allegations or the scope of the police investigation have been disclosed. The Law Society has not issued a public statement on the matter.
The development comes as regulatory bodies across the region face heightened scrutiny over workplace governance and complaints handling procedures. It remains unclear when the police investigation will be concluded or when the audit report may be made available.
