An innovative research lab has been launched, providing access to historic banks of case law data and legal information from the Incorporated Council of Law Reporting for England and Wales (ICLR). The ICLR archive of case summaries dates back to 1865. The new resource, which opened last week, will be known as ICLR&D. As well as acting as a research source, it will work on projects with the courts, universities, barristers, law firms, technology companies and third-sector organisations. Daniel Hoadley, head of research and design, said: ‘We want to marry our data and expertise in the common law domain with new techniques and emerging technologies.’
