We’ll send you Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consete turorem ipsum dolor sit
In a recent report, a Civil Justice Council (CJC) working group has recommended substantial changes to the regime of pre-action protocols (PAPs) which parties are expected to follow before civil proceedings are commenced in the English courts.
The thrust of the proposals is to give PAPs more “teeth” by:
- making their requirements mandatory and formalising their status under the Civil Procedure Rules thereby expanding the courts’ powers to sanction parties for non-compliance, including by staying or even striking out proceedings
- Extending the current obligations in the "default" general PAP protocol (applicable to all cases not covered by one of the separate area-specific PAPs). Most controversially, this would include a new "mandatory obligation to engage in a pre-action dispute resolution process". That could either involve a third party neutral (such as mediation) or not - but with a default requirement for ad inter-party meeting in the parties do not agree on a different process.
