Administration of Justice: Fees and Charges
(asked on 10th February 2015) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if he will take steps to simplify the form EX160 for application for fee remission.
This question was answered on 25th February 2015
In July 2014 HM Courts & Tribunals Service (HMCTS) launched a revised fee remission application form and guidance which removed some requirements based on user feedback.
HMCTS is now developing further reforms to the fee remission process which significantly simplifies the application form and guidance, removing the need for applicants to provide supporting documents in most cases. HMCTS expects these reforms to be in place for users by September 2015.
