Select Committee Inquiry
23 Jul 2025 Access to Justice Justice Committee (Select) Submit Evidence (by 30 Sep 2025) This inquiry will examine how advice and legal services are adapting to secure access to justice across civil, criminal, and family law, and the impacts of the cyber-attack on the Legal Aid Agency. In 2022-23, the Justice Committee undertook a broad inquiry on the Future of Legal Aid, looking at the challenges facing legal aid clients and providers and how they might be tackled. That inquiry built upon work undertaken by the Committee in 2015 on the impact of changes to civil legal aid under Part 1 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012. This inquiry will consider how the provision of legal advice and representation, and supplementary advice services, have developed in response to the restrictions on the provision of legal aid. It will focus on the scope for future innovation in the nature of services, funding, regulation and technology to support effective access to justice in England and Wales.
