The Coronavirus pandemic and subsequent Government advice on social distancing have led to sudden changes across the Courts and Tribunals system in England and Wales, including a move, in some cases, to remote hearings.

This event, originally held on April 8th, 2020, convened an expert panel to discuss:

• State of play currently in the courts system, including an overview of which courts are offering remote hearings and which are suspended
• Issues arising from new guidance on court access and use
• User experiences, and
• Headline concerns, opportunities and learning.

Panellists:

Matt Ahluwalia, Public Law Project
Natalie Byrom, The Legal Education Foundation
Jo Hynes, Public Law Project and University of Exeter
Professor Celia Kitzinger, Cardiff University and ‘support friend’

Former Justice of the High Court, Dame Laura Cox DBE opened the Public Law Project’s inaugural Discrimination Law conference this week by sharing her view on why our equality laws are still fragile nearly ten years on from the 2010 Equality Act.

Dame Laura’s wide-ranging address explored: the link between public law and equality; how a constitutional equality guarantee could support the coherent development of common law; and why there should be a duty on every serving judge to know something about structural inequality and disadvantage.
