The video is great, but recording on a tape really made me laugh 😅

Am i right in assuming that 'all' examinations are now carried out on line via webinar ??? Thank you.

I have watched the entire clip. The candidate seemed to have had an overall good command of English, nice delivery (clear pronounciation without a 'thick' accent) Unfortunately the devil (or merit) is in the details. It lacked proper understanding and rendition of the legal terminology. And I am surprised the clip editor/channel/exam panel made no comments on that the (very last) part of translation referring to the 'bail' which was completely inaccurate 26:36 and on. It is a common issue with Polish (and others probnably too) interpreters who have had no exposure to some legal training (here: criminal procedure) that they tend to translate legal terms verbatim or literally. The girl here completely missed the point. What was said - the accused's solicitor was going to apply for a 'continuing bail'. Which is a certain type of procedure. I.e to ask the court to release the accused from detention (remand on bail) simply put. The accused returns home and has to appear in court when summoned and observe certain (bail) conditions. Bail does not mean (necessarily or always) a payment of money (which is how it was translated), the phrase or term (statutory) of 'continuing bail' was translated as 'to continue money security or bail payment). Bail is not about payment of money. (a court lodgement can only be a part of the entire recognisance bond and money is often - in minor cases - not required at all). A proper translation would have to be 'uchylenie aresztu' (jako srodka zapobiegawczego) or 'odpowiadanie z wolnej stopy' until the time of court appearance. To translate it as 'kontynuacja kaucji' (a continuation of money bail or bail security) is a complete miss. Was there no PL/EN expert /examiner present to catch this? The following part (solicitor's caution on a possible revocation of bail) is translated as 'wycofanie kaucji' and 'zniesienie warunkow kaucji' (retraction of bail security and lifting of bail conditions). This is completely wrong!!! The solicitor is simply saying that if the bailee was to breach any of the conditions whilst on bail the court might send her back to custody (awaiting trial and verdict). It is foir the accused to understand that she has to behave, be very careful and fulfill all obligations imposed in the interim (such as may be e.g. signing at the police station, refrain from leaving jurisdiction etc) ! If not she will be arrested and put in prison. The interpeter is saying - her money security will be withdrawn and conditions lifted. Quite bizarre and no reaction from the panel!!! Sadly, but I would have to fail the candidate on this element. BTW I am a Polish national myself. And to tell you honestly I lost confidence in the quality of the DPSI qualification after watching this exam. Very lax.
