Are you interested in observing the rule making process? The Civil Procedure Rule Committee is hosting the annual Open Meeting of the Committee on 8 May 2026.
The open meeting of the Civil Procedure Rule Committee will take place on Friday 8 May 2026. This year it will be conducted in a hybrid format: in person at a venue in central Birmingham and online via Microsoft Teams.
Guests will be observers only and not be able to participate in the Committee's business or contribute to items in the agenda. However, there will be an opportunity at the end of the meeting for guests to ask pre-submitted questions to the Committee.
Attendance
Due to limitations with venue capacity and with the conferencing software, space is limited and all those that apply may not be invited, so we are asking potential guests to complete a short application form.
