the contracts remained unsigned they maintained the character of legal advice rather than duly executed contracts which evidenced agreed transactions and business relationships or status between the clients. The Defendant also submitted that the form of t

The purpose of legal professional privilege is to preserve confidentiality between the lawyer and his client. Legal professional privilege protects from disclosure communications made between a lawyer and his client for the purpo
se of obtaining confidential legal advice. The privilege also protects from disclosure certain documents prepared for use in existing or anticipated litigation. The rationale behind legal professional privilege is that frank and complete disclosure betwee
n a lawyer and his client is indispensable for the effective and proper conduct of litigation. Legal professional privilege does not apply to routine communications made between a lawyer and his client in the course of their lawyer\\
client relationship. To attract the privilege, the communication must be a confidential communication, or one made for the purpose of existing or anticipated litigation.

 (1976) 13 5 CLR 674, as opposed to the broader dominant purpose approach of the House of Lords in England would appear to maintain that which 
has always been at the heart of the common law privilege, i.e. confidentiality between the client and the professional legal adviser. Under the dominant purpose test the concept of confidentiality is eroded in that the communication can be open to scrutin
y
 and use by others yet still attract the privilege. With the greatest of respect to the eminent jurists in the House of Lords I can see no compelling reason to move away from the notion of confidentiality between the client and the professional legal advi
s
er as being the basis on which legal professional privilege is founded. To do so would I believe, broaden this very important area of the traditional solicitor/client relationship in a way that was never envisaged or intended. The potential for the privil
ege to be abused and used as a screen for activities between numerous parties for which the privilege was never intended is greatly increased under the dominant purposive approach. Such a situation was foreseen by Stephen, Mason & Murphy JJ in }{

"All that we have said so far indicates that unless the law confines legal professional privilege to those documents which are brought into existence for the sole purpose of submission to legal adv
isers for advice or for use in legal proceedings the privilege will travel beyond the underlying rationale to which it is intended to give expression and will confer an advantage and immunity on a corporation which is not enjoyed by the ordinary individua
l
. It is not right that the privilege can attach to documents which, quite apart from the purpose of submission to a solicitor, would have been brought into existence for other purposes in any event, and then without attracting any attendant privilege. For
 this and the reasons which we have expressed earlier we consider that the sole purpose test should now be adopted as the criterion of legal professional privilege."

information and an opposing party who wishes that information to remain confidential.
\par 
\par In the matter before the
 Court the documents in question are unsigned agreements or contracts setting out the business and commercial relationship between the Defendant's three clients. While unsigned at this stage, the Defendant advised the Court that he expected them to be sig
ned in due course.
 The Defendant submitted that while the agreements remained unsigned they retained the quality of being purely confidential advice to which the privilege attached but, which would not apply once the agreements were signed. I do not agree w
ith the Defendant's submission in this regard. I think such an approach which pivots the question of privilege attaching to those particular documents on whether they are executed or not, does not place sufficient emphasis on the constituent ele
ments of the privilege as authoritatively developed under the common law with regard to its application to communications within the relationship between a legal adviser and his client.
\par 
\par In his submissions the Defendant also urged the Court to look at the substance o
f the agreements themselves to ascertain whether the contents of those agreements could be categorised as advice of a confidential nature. I agree with the Defendant in this regard. It is important to look at the contents and substance of the agreements o
v
er which the privilege is claimed and to ask whether they can be categorised as being confidential communications between the defendant and his clients, their sole purpose being for the use of the Defendant with each of those three clients, and, that as d
rafted they constitute advice to the three clients.
\par 
\par After reading and perusing the agreements in question I am satisfied that they do not fall into those categories. The agreements are not confidential in that they set out and define the intended legal bus
iness relationship between the Defendant's three clients. The agreements are to be exchanged between the clients and would no doubt be pleaded as the basis of any litigation in the event of legal action between them in this regard. Thus, the agreements di
d
 not come into being solely for the use of the Defendant in the giving of professional legal advice. The agreements even though unsigned do not constitute advice in themselves nor were they brought into existence for the sole purpose of obtaining legal ad
v
ice. They are in fact the product of, or the end result of the advice given to the three clients by the Defendant. The Defendant admitted that he expected the agreements to be executed by the three clients in due course. They are thus the crystallisation 
of the instructions and advice between the Defendant and his three clients, and, as I have said above, form the basis and framework of the commercial relationship between themselves. As such, the unsigned moments are neither solely fo
r the use of the Defendant vis-\'e0-vis each client, and are thus not confidential, nor do they constitute advice.
\par 
\par I am further fortified in the conclusion that I have reached in this regard by the dicta of Murphy J in }{\rtlch\fcs1 \ab\ai\af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \b\i\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid409525\charrsid10563912 Barker v. Campbell}{\rtlch\fcs1

. Those guidelines have been agreed to between the Australian Commissioner of Taxation and the Law Council of Australia, and set out the procedure to be followed by Officers of the Commissioner when seeking access to lawyer's premises and records. I under
stand that Officers of the Commissioner of Inland Revenue in Fiji attempt to follow those guidelines whenever practicable in the conduct of their duties with regard to lawyer's premises and records.
\par 
\par Such guidelines are extremely thorough and helpful. I can only hope that the initiative will be taken here in Fiji and that representatives of the Law Society and the Commissioner of Inland Revenue will meet together and agree upon a similar set of 
guidelines suitable to our local conditions. I am sure that such an exercise would contribute greatly to an increase in the understanding and cooperation between the profession and the Commissioner's Office.
