Strategic Lawsuits against Public Participation Asked by: Baroness Falkner of Margravine (Crossbench - Life peer) Monday 30th December 2024 Question to the Ministry of Justice: To ask His Majesty's Government what consideration they have given to introducing legislation to curtail the use of strategic lawsuits against public participation.

The Government is focusing on implementing the SLAPPs measures in the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023. Our future approach to SLAPPs reform will be informed by monitoring how these new procedural rules operate when they come into effect in 2025.
