About this Event

We are delighted to welcome Maureen Harding Clark to give the 9th Annual Ailsa McKay Memorial Lecture.

Maureen Harding Clark was called to the Bar in Dublin in 1975 following her university education at Lyon, UCD, Trinity College and the King's Inns. She practised first on the South Eastern Circuit and then as Senior Counsel in Dublin from 1991, and had a comprehensive legal practice specialising in criminal law and medical negligence. Maureen has acted for the families of the bereaved in many inquests and has represented the Irish government in a large number of children's special needs cases, as well as leading the prosecution in the first money-laundering trial in Europe, as well as the first marital rape and male rape trials in Ireland. While a Senior Counsel, she served on the Bar Council. She was one of the first Judges ad litem at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia at The Hague.

In 2019, following her nomination by the UN secretary-general António Guterres, Maureen was appointed as a judge of the Supreme Court of the Khmer Rouge Tribunal to investigate the Cambodian genocide.


The lecture will end with a Q&A session followed by drinks and nibbles.
