Dear members,

 

The MOJ has just announced the planned Flexible Operating Hours pilot planned for Highbury Corner Magistrates’ Court and Blackfriars Crown Court this autumn has been delayed until February 2018, please see the announcement here: https://insidehmcts.blog.gov.uk/2017/09/21/were-pausing-court-hours-pilots-to-get-evaluation-and-other-changes-right/

 

The Association has attended numerous engagement events and made our views clear.  It is a bad idea from the outset.  It is bad for clients, witnesses, professional diversity and for business.  There will be further engagement events where we will represent your interests.

 

We welcome members views on this subject and how early starts and late finishes might affect you or your business.

 

Kind regards,

 

Mark Troman

LCCSA Secretary
