Answer
The attached table illustrates the categories of public sector employees within my remit that have professional fees paid by my department and those that do not.
Legal professional fees are only paid where necessary for the execution of the work in which they are involved. For this reason some solicitors and barristers have their professional fees paid whilst others do not.
