The Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General announced its appointment of the Honourable Frank Iacobucci as a member of the Board of Governors of the newly established Law Commission of Ontario.
The Commission will work with academic institutions, the legal community, the judiciary and the public to generate practical and creative solutions to existing legal challenges. It will also explore ways to make Ontario’s justice system more accessible, for example, by using technology like the Internet to collect and disseminate legal knowledge and research. The Commission is a partnership between Osgoode Hall Law School, York University, the Deans of Ontario’s seven law schools, the Law Society of Upper Canada, the Ministry of the Attorney General and the Law Foundation of Ontario.
