Where a barrister is informed that the client denies committing the offence charged but insists on pleading guilty to the charge, the barrister:
> (a) must advise the client to the effect that by pleading guilty, the client will be admitting guilt to all the world in respect of all the elements of the charge,
> (b) must advise the client that matters submitted in mitigation after a plea of guilty must be consistent with admitting guilt in respect of all of the elements of the offence,
> (c) must be satisfied that after receiving proper advice the client is making a free and informed choice to plead guilty, and
> (d) may otherwise continue to represent the client.
