CPRC minutes—6 June 2025
The Civil Procedure Rule Committee (CPRC) has published its minutes following their meeting of 6 June 2025, which was conducted in a hybrid format, at The Rolls Building (Royal Courts of Justice) and via video conference. Amongst other things, it was confirmed that a pilot scheme is going to be introduced under CPR 51 for non-parties to access court documents, following the Supreme Court judgment in Cape Intermediate Holdings Ltd v Dring [2019] UKSC 38. The CPRC also approved amendments to the e-working pilot, which will transition to a permanent electronic filing system, continuing efforts to modernise court processes. Proposed updates to CPR Part 75 were discussed to improve traffic enforcement procedures. Amendments to CPR 62.10 and CPR PD62 were also approved in consequence of the Arbitration Act 2025 (Act), these changes are intended to come into force at the same time as, or shortly after, the Act comes into force.
