Courts: ICT

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, whether access to justice will be used as a criteria by his Department to assess the performance of (a) PwC and (b) other contractors in the delivery of digital courts reform contracts.

Answer

Court reform is designed to improve our courts, which includes people’s ability to access justice. Various suppliers are enabling the department to deliver against our court reform goals, and contractual arrangements are in place to ensure they deliver our requirements.

The PwC arrangement does not include any prima facie assessment of performance related to access to justice. There are other performance related measures applied to that contract to enable PwC support the department.
