What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Scottish Government’s Justice Analytical Services (JAS) Division wishes to undertake analysis of the changes to civil justice processes and procedures flowing from the pandemic response, with a particular focus on the adoption of ‘remote hearings’.

The aim of the research is to evaluate the changes made to civil justice processes and procedures in light of the pandemic in order to inform the future vision for the civil courts, tribunals and civil justice more broadly. In brief, the research seeks to improve and expand the evidence base so that any decision on whether specific ‘pandemic measures’ are continued, amended further or discarded is informed by relevant, current and high quality research.
