Is there an area of law that frustrates you, a bugbear loophole or sprawling legislative mess in dire need of reform? If so, the Law Commission wants to hear from you.
It is looking for ideas and views on what to include in its 14th programme of law reform. Possible themes include technological change, responding to Brexit, environmental protection, home buying, the online peer-to-peer marketplace, contempt of court and automated decision making.
Writing in NLJ this week, Law Commissioner Sir Nicholas Green provides more details on the process of consultation and how to make your views known. He writes: ‘The impact of the responses we receive from practitioners cannot be understated. Your responses will shape a great deal of the work of the commission for the next few years.’
The consultation closes on 31 July. Visit the Law Commission website to read further at www.lawcom.gov.uk/14th-programme.
