Our justice system's integrity depends on fair, transparent prosecutions brought in the public interest. But long-standing public concern exists about regulation of non-police & private prosecutors.
An upcoming consultation will review the regulation governing these prosecutors.

Hot take🔥
A real, people-centered justice system is not attainable within the provider-centered system that the US has in place today. If we want the former, we have to dismantle the latter. #A2J
📢Today the OECD Council adopted the Recommendation on Access to Justice and People-Centred Justice Systems⚖️
This Recommendation helps pave the way for countries to achieve #accesstojustice and build #peoplecentred justice systems

Good to see @CLConveyancers move on this. Reflects @StephenMayson’s conclusion in @IRLSR supplementary report on consumer harm (2022: page 135) that “providers of legal services should be subject to a positive duty of fair dealing”.
