star this property answer text <p>The Government takes the issue of gender inequalities very seriously and recognises the intentions of those bringing forward proposals to reform male primogeniture for hereditary titles. Careful consideration is needed of the issues that reform in this area would raise including the legitimate expectation of males next in line to inherit a title, and the effects of reform on land and property rights. Various approaches have been proposed in both Houses to address this issue though there has not been a consensus on the way forward. The Government’s position remains that reform in this area is not a priority for this Parliamentary session but the Government continues to listen to the concerns of interested parties to understand the consequences of changes to hereditary titles.</p> more like this

Utilisation is only recorded for hearings in HMCTS-controlled or owned court/hearing rooms where parties were physically present.</p><p> </p><p>The utilisation rate is calculated as the total hours used divided by the number of notionally available hours. The data was produced from the HMCTS Performance Database on 8 July 2019.
