The Law Commission needs your help to decide what its next law reform projects should be, says chair Sir Nicholas Green
  • The Law Commission of England and Wales has launched a consultation on its 14th programme of law reform.
  • It is seeking the views of all practitioners of law on themes and ideas for possible reform.

In March, the Law Commission of England and Wales launched a consultation on our 14th programme of law reform. We do this every few years, in accordance with our statutory obligations, with a view to submitting a draft programme of law reform to the Lord Chancellor for agreement.

We are asking for your help to identify areas of the law of England and Wales that need reform, and to help us work out how to prioritise those reforms. 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.

In this article, I will describe the process for consulting
