Thousands of law students now have a new lease of life following a Cabinet approval of two Bills that introduce new players to offer post-graduate training.
Further, the new Bills seek to review the admission requirements for future lawyers and law practitioners.
This cures the cyclic wars which have pitted Kenya School of Law and students seeking to admission for post-graduate training known as the Advocates Training Programme (ATP).
MPs now hold the handkerchief that will wipe out tears of thousands of students barred from practicing law after graduating from various universities.

Students who are unable to raise fees to complete advocates training at the Kenya School of Law (KSL) will now get loans through the Higher Education Loans Board.
This as it emerged that up to 200 law students at the KSL drop out of training annually for lack of fees.
The school admits about 1,800 students per year to undertake Advocates Training Program (ATP). KSL administers the course through day-time classes, evening and weekend classes.
The ATP total tuition fee for Kenyan students is Sh145,000. This includes the cost for the nine units, library fee, and pupillage supervision fee.
