Article summary

The Administrative Justice Council (AJC) has initiated a Call for Evidence, running until 17:00 pm on 10 February 2025, to gather insights on the impact of digital reforms in tribunals and address disadvantage within the administrative justice system. The initiative aims to inform two working group reports by soliciting input from representatives, advisors, and community organisations. Respondents are encouraged to share challenges faced, best practices, and improvement suggestions across two key areas: the effects of tribunal digitalisation on users and barriers to justice stemming from personal circumstances. This evidence-gathering exercise seeks to enhance access to justice and improve user experiences within the administrative justice framework.
