Lower House begins discussions of amended bar association bill

AMMAN — The Lower House on Tuesday began deliberations on the amended Jordan Bar Association Law, endorsing several articles.

During the session, deputies also began implementing the House’s new Rules of Procedure.

Signatories to the memo said several provisions in the current by-law “harm the interests of employees”.
