Description

The Judicial Appointments Commission selects candidates for judicial office in England and Wales and for some tribunals with UK- wide powers.

It is their statutory duty to select candidates on merit, who are of good character. The JAC works closely with a range of organisations to promote vacancies to all that are eligible.

The JAC is responsible for running selection exercises and making recommendations for posts up to and including the High Court. They also participate in, at the request of the Lord Chancellor and alongside the Lord Chief Justice, the selection of senior judicial office holders such as the Lord Chief Justice, the High Court's Heads of Division, the Senior President of Tribunals and Lord and Lady Justices of Appeal.

This tender is for the commissioning of a research project on measures used successfully by other common law jurisdictions to improve judicial diversity that could bring a number of benefits for the JAC and our JDF partners:

a better understanding of what is currently working, what is not working, what is working best; an understanding of how other common law jurisdictions have improved their judicial diversity might be used in England and Wales; enable evidence-informed outcomes/ recommendations that are responsive and sustainable;
