*Reform plans across civil, family and tribunals*
To complete the series of updates about the Reform Programme, our Programme Director for Civil, Family and Tribunals (CFT) highlights what it means across the CFT jurisdictions, as well as describing some changes to central functions.
In her blog, Rachel Hunt describes how reform across CFT will move forward, to get the technology right and provide a more reliable and consistent service for public and professional users.

New Blackpool court given go-ahead
Blackpool Planning Committee has granted full planning permission for the new £40m Blackpool Court to be built at Devonshire Road in the town. The new state-of-the-art court will deal with civil, family, tribunals and magistrates’ work.
Courts minister Mike Freer said the approval is “an exciting step forward for Blackpool”, with plans for the next phase of the project now able to get underway.

Crime
Completing Reform – Common Platform
A new blog from our Crime Programme Director describes what the revised plans for delivering the Reform Programme, which we shared last week, mean for the crime programme.
As part of the revised the scope, Daniel Flury details our plans to retain the Digital Case System in the Crown Court, while continuing to make improvements to Common Platform.

Inside the Criminal Courts
In the latest video in our series looking inside criminal courts you can hear from Marie, a Court Co-ordinator. She provides a link between the agencies working on a pilot scheme which aims to reduce reoffending.
The Intensive Supervision Court pilot, launched last year in Liverpool, Teesside and Birmingham courts, targets the root causes of offending behaviour through community-based sentences.
