Roadshow events seeking views on modernisation of courts and tribunals will be launched by HM Courts & Tribunals Service in November 2017.
Providers are being invited with other members of the legal profession to register for a series of roadshow events which start on 27 November 2017.
The idea is for HM Courts & Tribunals Service to collect views and ideas on the £1 billion modernisation programme.
This is due to be completed in 2022 and will affect everyone who uses and works within our courts and tribunals.
Where will the events be held?
The roadshow events will be run over several months and will each last 90 minutes. These are the first dates and venues to be confirmed:
- 27 November, 5.30pm to 7pm – Newcastle Combined Court
- 29 November, 5pm to 6.30pm – Manchester Civil Justice Centre
- 11 December, 5.30pm to 7pm – London Royal Courts of Justice
More events will be scheduled later in the year.
How will the events work?
There will be a general introduction to the reform programme and a round-table discussion.
Issues will include:
- scheduling and listing
- virtual hearings
- flexible operating hours
