Revision of the Public Law Outline - to come into force on 6 April 2010

Monday, 15 March 2010 18:09

The President of the Family Division and the Ministry of Justice have been working together (and in conjunction with other family justice agencies) to revise the Practice Direction Guide to Case Management in Public Law Proceedings.

This Practice Direction is more commonly known as the  Public Law Outline, (the PLO). It amounts to fine-tuning of how care proceedings are dealt with, with a single new form ( C110) to replace a number of previous forms. The aim is for revisions to the PLO to come into force on 6 April 2010.

Please Read the Revision of the Public Law Outline and download the new C110. The purpose of this note is to brief you about these changes and their impact – and for you to share this information with relevant colleagues in your organisation.
