Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, pursuant to the Answer of 8 February 2024 to Question 13012 on Repossession Orders: Wales, if he will make an updated estimate of when the Possession Claim Online service will be made available in Welsh for properties in Wales.

As a result of the Renting Homes Wales Act 2016 introduced by the Welsh Government and implemented in December 2022, changes to the Possession Claim Online (PCOL) service are required to enable users to make a claim for possession of a property located in Wales.

Work is still ongoing between HMCTS and Welsh Government to agree the scope and funding of these changes to ensure compliance with the legislation.
