Prioritise rolling out well-regarded existing digital systems from other jurisdictions for HMCTS

Recommendation
Following the completion of the £1 billion Reform Programme, HMCTS must prioritise the roll out of existing systems from other jurisdictions, such as CE Filing, which are well-regarded by legal professionals. These should not be replaced for the sake of change alone; instead, efforts must focus on integration and interoperability, ensuring successful tools are preserved and enhanced. (Recommendation, Paragraph 155)
