SUMMARY:The Gender Income Gap in Public Law: Is Equitable Briefing the only
  answer?
DESCRIPTION:ALBA is pleased to host a roundtable discussion on the gender i
 ncome gap in public law\, to discuss the cause(s) of this gap and practica
 l steps that can be taken to address it.\n\nWe are delighted to be joined 
 by:\n\n 	Joanne Clement KC\, 11KBW and Vice Chair of ALBA\n 	Laura Hughes\
 , Head of Public Law at Browne Jacobson\n 	Sian Wilkins\, Senior Clerk (Ci
 vil) at Doughty Street Chambers\n 	Rachel Krys\, Consultant to the Inclusi
 on Team\, The Bar Council\n 	Kelly Quinn KC\, Bankside Chambers (Auckland)
  and member of the New Zealand Bar Association’s Diversity and Inclusion
  Committee\n\nRecent Bar Council reports have confirmed that\n\n 	Women ar
 e earning less than men across all experience levels at the self-employed 
 Bar. Junior women are earning 76% of what junior men were earning. Women s
 ilks are earning on average 72% of their male colleagues’ median gross e
 arnings\n 	Earnings gaps persist across every post-qualification experienc
 e (PQE) band. The highest earning men are consistently earning more than t
 he highest earning women\n 	During the previous 4 years (2021-2024)\, medi
 an earnings at the Bar increased for both men and women. However\, women
 ’s earnings increased by less than men’s. This means the gap is still
  increasing\n\nThe event will explore a range of themes from a number of 
 perspectives\, including the experiences of those instructing barristers\,
  insights from the clerks room\, and the expectations of clients. We are v
 ery fortunate to be joined by Kelly Quinn KC from the New Zealand bar\, wh
 o will share perspectives from New Zealand in addressing similar issues\, 
 and the equitable briefing policies in place there.\n\nContributions to th
 e discussion from attendees (both in-person and online) are encouraged.\n\
 nThe roundtable will commence at 6:00 pm\, to be followed by a drinks re
 ception from 7.15pm\, to which all participants are warmly invited. The ev
 ent is free and and available to ALBA members only.\n\nRegistration will 
 close at 6pm on 3 March.\n\nTo book\, please sign up for the event below. 
 There is an option to attend online. Please do not use the booking form b
 elow if you wish to attend remotely. Please email: administrator@adminlaw.
