Salient. Official Newspaper of the Victoria University Students' Association. Vol 44 No. 1. March 2 1981

[Introduction]

The soon to be opened student run community law centre in Aro Street will be the result of many months work, thought and enthusiasm, and the beginning of much more.

The aim of the Centre is to take a step toward satisfying the unmet legal need of the people of Wellington. It will offer a free legal advice and assistance service. The Centre will be open between 5.30 and 9.00pm, from Monday to Thursday; outside the normal office hours of traditional legal services and of ordinary working hours.

Clients will be interviewed and advised by senior law students. After the initial interview the student will discuss the problem and any suggested action with the senior solicitor who will be at the Centre in another room. No advice will be given, no letter written, and no other action taken by students unless the matter has first been fully discussed with the solicitor and approval given.
