The speakers also explained the roles and responsibilities of a government lawyer, which include the drafting of contracts and legislations, prosecuting criminal cases in court, and providing legal advice to government ministries and departments.
During the briefing, the students were encouraged to interact with the speakers and ask questions.
They were also advised to apply for an attachment programme at the AGC during their school holidays, to gain more insights into the legal profession in Brunei Darussalam.
