These changes include creating the Planning Court, in which significant challenges are considered by judges with planning expertise to time targets, and sections of the Criminal Justice and Courts Act 2015, such as allowing appeals of national significance to more often move direct to the Supreme Court, reducing the potential for delay.</p><p> </p><p>A number of the outstanding reforms will take effect in due course, and the government is currently seeking further views on proposals for providing the courts with information on how judicial review applications are being funded.</p> answering member constituency North East Hertfordshire answering member printed Sir Oliver Heald question first answered 19/07/2016 15:45:53 answering member 69 label Biography information for Sir Oliver Heald
