The President of the New Zealand Bar Association, Jim Farmer QC, welcomed today's announcement by the Attorney General that Robert Dobson QC has been appointed as a High Court Judge.

His career has been a distinguished one and he has been lead counsel in many important cases under the Securities Act and Commerce Act in particular.
