Condolences continue to be paid on the passing of the country’s former Chief Justice Michael De La Bastide.

The Equal Opportunity Tribunal says his illustrious service has helped to shape the development of the region’s legal framework.

It says his visionary leadership laid the foundation for a more integrated judicial system, fostering greater regional cooperation and solidarity.

And it hopes his legacy continues to inspire generations of jurists and advocates to strive for a more just and fair society.
