As the LSC inform us TLS won this afternoon. I have had very many phone calls but have not been able to get anything more substantive, that the above link, to post.
As can be seen from that, how much further this takes us is, as yet, unclear be prepared for our Plan B.
Do away goals count?
(Sorry for the football analogies)
The High Court has today ruled the LSC tender process for family law to be unlawful. The LSC has indicated that it is considering the judgment and whether or not to appeal.
The court declared the LSC’s failure to give advance notice of the panel membership as unlawful. It also declared the decision not to award family contracts unlawful, effectively quashing the contracts. The four categories where contracts have been quashed are family: housing and family; children only; and child abduction. Other civil contracts will expire in November.
I suppose it is too much to hope that the people responsible for this shambolic episode do the honourable thing.
