According to the Law Council of Australia’s president, Ross Ray QC, Grant is experienced in intergovernmental relations and has expertise in policy, administration and management, particularly in the legal aid field. Announcing the appointment last week, Ray said “we are very pleased to secure Bill’s services. We are looking forward to his leadership in our CEO role”.
