With effect from 11 November 2024, the pilot scheme was extended to the Royal Courts of Justice.
With effect from 29 January 2025, and pursuant to a notice issued on 11 December 2024, the pilot scheme was extended to 29 January 2026 in respect of financial remedy proceedings taking place in all courts in England and Wales.
It is intended that, in due course, the pilot scheme will be made permanent. Before then, a consultation is due to take place with relevant stakeholders. Accordingly, the pilot scheme will be extended for a further year, from 30 January 2026 to 29 January 2027.
