I wanted to thank Dr Chinwe Egbunike-Umegbolu, AFHEA for the opportunity to discuss #Bentham and his ideas on the famous Expert Views on ADR (EVA) Vid / Podcast Show, and for the second time!

Chinwe and I debate the continuing relevance of Bentham’s 18thC philosophy to civil justice reform in the 21stC. Especially as we move into the final stages of implementing Lord Woolf’s Recommendations in the Access to Justice Report from July 1996. This Report was, of course, entirely grounded in Utilitarian principles.

I draw attention to those as Recommendations surprisingly (almost 30 years later 🙄) not yet introduced:
258-273: IT in the Civil Courts including of course Rec 263 – the provision of trusted online resources which some subsequently called Tier 1
295-303: the integration of ADR into civil justice.

It was a thrill to have this opportunity Chinwe thank you so much!
