You were right the first time. It is a conditional discharge not an unconditional discharge.There's no such thing as an unconditional discharge.
There is an absolute discharge but that's not for any period.It's tantamount to an acquittal and is ordered in those very rare cases where a person is technically guilty but it would be an injustice to punish them at all. .

Thank you Judge your answer it was very helpful to me and Sara23 thank you not, it was unconditional discharge has I have received the paper work have spoken to one of the Inns after 2yrs I can still be a barrister but must declare it as and unconditional discharge means that you are convicted by the Court but that they do not believe it to be right to give you any punishment. You walk away from Court without jail, fine, community service or probation but WITH a criminal record. You may have to pay the Prosecution's costs however.
That's correct shams but, of course, if you are convicted of another offence which is within the period of the conditional discharge, here 2 years, you are liable to be dealt with for breaching the conditional discharge,given whatever penalty could have been imposed the first time, and that's in addition to any penalty for the new offence.
Had you received an absolute discharge you would have no such condition attached to it and no period would have been specified.

I've just had a look at Sara's link and can't help but agree with her, the legal profession do not like dishonesty offence, it doesn't really bode well for being deemed a fit and proper person to be admitted.
When I was going through my law degree and law school I heard of people being refused admission as a solicitor due to offences such as being caught fare dodging due to the dishonesty element.
I'm sure I had to make declarations relationing to any convictions and such before I was admitted.
It might depend on the circumstances but as there is such high demand for jobs in the profession, even if you get the qualifications, it might make you an easier candidate to disregard.
