The Civil Procedure Rule Committee was set up under the Civil Procedure Act 1997 to make rules of court for the Civil Division of the Court of Appeal, the High Court and the County Court. The Civil Procedure Rules set out the practice and procedure to be followed.

Proposed amendments as to provision concerning the Welsh language consultation

The Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) and its attendant Practice Directions (PDs) contain a variety of provisions specifically directed to matters concerning Wales and the Welsh language. They are applicable in both Wales and England. These provisions have been introduced and amended piecemeal over the years. A review has been carried out by the Welsh judicial member of the CPRC, and that review of the rules and possible amendments have been considered by the CPRC.

We now invite views and comments on the proposals outlined in the documents (available in English and Welsh respectively). In summary, the proposals comprise reforms to:
- the Devolution PD
- the Welsh Language PD and the practice and procedure relating to listing provisions within the PD and the practice and procedure in circumstances where there is an issue as to interpretation of Welsh language text.

Fixed Recoverable Costs (FRC) Interim Implementation Stocktake

The Civil Procedure Rule Committee is undertaking a consultation regarding the effectiveness of the extension of Fixed Recoverable Costs (FRC), inviting feedback as part of an evidence-gathering initiative conducted in collaboration with the Ministry of Justice (MoJ).

The FRC regime was extended in October 2023.

The consultation exercise will be followed by the MoJ’s full Post Implementation Review into the FRC regime as a whole, which is due to commence in 2026.

The consultation material comprises:

Referral of Release Decisions Consultation: proposed amendments to CPR Part 77 and Practice Direction 77

The Secretary of State for Justice (‘SSJ’) will shortly have the power to direct the Parole Board to refer certain top-tier cases to the High Court for a new release decision. This is referred to as the ‘parole referral power’. The implementation of this new power requires new provisions in the Civil Procedure Rules.

Your views and comments are being sought on the proposed Rules and Practice Direction (attached as separate documents) amendments. A new section is being added to the Rules in Part 77 and the accompanying Practice Direction. This is not a policy consultation on the parole referral power.

Electronic Service Consultation: proposed amendments to CPR Part 6 and Practice Direction 6A

The CPRC is considering modernisation of service of process, in particular by electronic means.

Your views and comments are being sought on two relatively modest changes to the current service rules under CPR Part 6 and Practice Direction 6A (attached), namely:-

The Ministry of Justice thanks those who provided their views as part of the consultation.

Simplifying the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR)

In 2021, the CPRC commenced a new project to try to simplify the rules; this being a statutory duty under s.2(7) of the Civil Procedure Act 1997. The work is being conducted by a sub-committee which is approaching its task in a phased way. In doing so, the CPRC resolved to commence a rolling programme of consultation whereby drafting proposals are published for comment before changes are introduced. It is important to note that proposed changes to the CPR will be focused on drafting amendments and not substantive changes. Some proposals may relocate or dispense with provisions altogether.

You can read more on the sub-committee’s outline programme in the CPRC Minutes (https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/civil-procedure-rules-committee/about#minutes) (in particular those of the 11 June 2021) (and 6 October 2023) on GOV.UK.

The intention is to publish both tracked change (showing the proposed revisions) and clean versions for consultation and, unless specified otherwise, to allow six weeks (excluding August) for comments to be submitted; after which the sub-committee will review the responses and report back to the full CPRC for further determination.

If you wish to comment on the proposed changes, you should submit your comments by the published deadline to: xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx). Please do not copy your responses to other email addresses.

The first set of proposed reforms being published for consultation concerned CPR Part 10 (Acknowledgment of Service) and Part 12 (Default Judgment) and that exercise closed on 12 November 2021 and amendments reflected in the Civil Procedure (Amendment) Rules 2022 & 140th Practice Direction Update. The next set of proposed reforms being published for consultation concerned CPR Part 2 (Application and Interpretation of the Rules), Part 3 (the Court’s Case Management Powers), and Part 4 (Forms) and that exercise closed on 11 February 2022; this was followed by respective consultations on: CPR Part 14 (Admissions), Part 15 (Defence and Reply), and Part 16 (Statements of Case), which closed on 2 May 2022; CPR Part 49 (Specialist Proceedings) on which comments were invited by 23 May 2022; some of these amendments were reflected in the Civil Procedure (Amendment No.2) Rules 2022 & the 149th PD Update.

This Update cycle was followed by consultations on CPR Part 17 (Amendments to Statement of Case) & 38 (Discontinuance), which closed on 21 June 2022, CPR Part 19 (Parties and Group Litigation), which closed on 5 July, CPR Part 20 (Counter Claims and Other Additional Claims), which closed on 23 September and CPR Part 21 (Children and Protected Parties) which closed on 24 November. Part 22 (Statements of Truth) and Part 23 (General Rules about Applications for Court Orders) which closed on 24 February 2023 and the consultation on Part 24 (Summary Judgment) closed on 28 April. Amendments to Parts 17,19, 20 and 38 were made via the Civil Procedure (Amendment) Rules 2023 & the153rd PD Update. Amendments to Parts 21, 23 and 24 were reflected in the Civil Procedure (Amendment No.3) Rules 2023 & the 157th/158th PD Updates.

Thank you to everyone who submitted responses. You can follow progress through the CPRC Minutes and subsequent CPR Updates.

The public consultation concerning Part 25 (Interim Remedies and Security for Costs) closed on 9th February 2024 (it also included a proposed amendment to CPR Part 4 (Forms) in order to accommodate express reference to Model Orders). The reforms provided an entirely new Part 25, dispensing with the two supplementing PDs and restructuring the Part into a more logical order; a suite of revised model orders were also produced. The reforms were including in the Civil Procedure (Amendment) Rules 2025 and the 179th PD Update, as part of April 2025 common-commencement date.

The conclusion of this phase of the simplification project coincides with advances in the establishment of the Online Procedure Rule Committee (OPRC) and that presents an opportunity to take stock before defining future phases.

The simplification project has provided a reduction in overall length of the CPR, simplified the language, improved clarity and provided gender neutrality.

The overall principle of simplification remains an active part of the committee’s main work.

Vulnerability consultation response

The official response can be read in the Vulnerability consultation response (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/6470b23d4a892b0013746c2d/cprc-consultation-vulnerability-response.pdf) (PDF, 131 KB, 3 pages).

The Ministry of Justice thanks those who provided their views as part of the consultation.

Implementation of the extended fixed recoverable costs (FRC) regime: October 2023

This is further to the bulletin in 2022 (https://www.justice.gov.uk/courts/procedure-rules/civil). At the Civil Procedure Rule Committee’s (CPRC) meeting on 31 March 2023, the draft amendments required for the implementation of the extended FRC regime were approved in principle. The papers provided below set out the amendments in draft (to Part 26 and PD 26, Part 28 and PD 28, Part 36, Part 45 and PD45) and are subject to formal ratification by the CPRC and the Master of the Rolls, as Head of Civil Justice, as appropriate, to be followed by ministerial concurrence and approval by Parliament. An accompanying note is also provided to give further information about the FRC reforms as approved in draft, particularly insofar as there have been developments since the MOJ consultation response, published in September 2021. The final suite of amendments are due to be published, in the usual way, in late May. The intended in-force date is 1 October 2023.

These papers are published in draft now so that stakeholders have advance notice and more time to familiarise themselves with the new regime; but the provisions remain in draft until formally approved.

CPR Part 24 (Summary Judgment)

The Civil Procedure Rule Committee (CPRC) is seeking your views.

Earlier in 2021, the CPRC commenced a new project to try to simplify the rules; this being a statutory duty under s.2(7) of the Civil Procedure Act 1997. The work is being conducted by a sub-committee chaired by Mr Justice Kerr which is approaching its task in a phased way over the next 12-24 months. In doing so, the CPRC has resolved to commence a rolling programme of consultation whereby drafting proposals are published for comment before changes are introduced. It is important to note that proposed changes to the CPR will be focused on drafting amendments and not substantive changes. Some proposals may relocate or dispense with provisions altogether.

You can read more on the sub-committee’s outline programme in the CPRC Minutes (https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/civil-procedure-rules-committee/about#minutes) (in particular those of the 11 June 2021) on GOV.UK.

The intention is to publish both tracked change (showing the proposed revisions) and clean versions for consultation and, unless specified otherwise, to allow six weeks (excluding August) for comments to be submitted; after which the sub-committee will review the responses and report back to the full CPRC for further determination.
