It is part of a call for evidence by the House of Lords Constitution Committee, which is conducting an inquiry into the impact of the coronavirus, government response and operation of the justice system.
In particular, the committee is interested in views on how effective virtual proceedings have been, which types of cases have worked best and worst, and the impact of virtual proceedings on litigants, lawyers, judges, court staff, media and the public. It is asking whether virtual proceedings could continue to be used after the end of social distancing, and how, and whether the number of jurors should change. It also poses the question whether juries could be replaced by judges for some cases.
