Sayed- Khaiyum was speaking to staff members of Legal Aid at their Annual National Corporate Staff Workshop.
He says there may be some cases may be peculiar to Nausori but there may be a similar issue in Tavueni or Labasa so the sharing of information is very critical.
Sayed- Khaiyum says the Legal Aid Commission has the largest network of legal services across Fiji which means it has a number of opportunities to be able to provide the type of services that no other legal outfit can provide.
He says the government has exponentially increased funding for Legal Aid in excess of over $5 million.
He says Legal Aid is for people who are resource - challenged
He has told them that many times people may approach them who are very desperate with land issues or domestic violence issues or somebody is about to be evicted and simply sometimes they would want somebody to lend them an ear.
He says Legal Aid officers have been asked to help people in Labasa who have land issues.
