AG defends outsourcing legal services

Accounting to the parliamentary Public Accounts Committee (PAC) on Friday, Molokomme said the Attorney General's Chambers outsources legal services to law firms on the basis of its knowledge of the firm's capabilities.

She was responding to a question from Tswapong North Member of Parliament, Prince Maele, who wanted to understand the process of outsourcing legal services and whether they have one preferred law firm. Maele wanted to know if it would be possible for law firms to tender to represent government when the need arises.
