Courts Act 2003 ("CA 2003") 67C Exercise of relevant judicial functions: reconsideration of decisions
New section 67C requires those who make rules of court, when making rules to allow certain judicial functions to be carried out by authorised staff in their jurisdiction, to consider whether the rules should include a specific right of reconsideration by a judicial office holder of decisions made by an authorised officer in the exercise of each of those judicial functions and:
where they consider that there should be such a right, include it in the rules they make; or
where they do not consider that there should be a right of reconsideration, inform the Lord Chancellor of their decision and explain the basis for that position.
