Specialist Lists
In the Interim Report, it was suggested that a significant degree of procedural
autonomy ought to be preserved for the operation of specialist lists.  The Working
Party agrees with the views expressed in the consultation
that this ought to apply to
timetabling.  
Accordingly, the Working Party is of the view that its general recommendations in
respect of timetables and milestones should not apply to cases in the specialist lists
save to the extent that the courts in charge of such lists should choose to adopt them in
a particular case or in general by issuing appropriate practice directions,
and subject
to what has been said above regarding the retention of a Running List.
Recommendation 62:  The recommendations made in this Final Report
regarding timetables and milestones should not apply to cases in the specialist
lists save to the extent that the judges in charge of such lists should choose to
adopt them in a particular case or by issuing appropriate practice directions and
subject to what has previously been recommended regarding the retention of a
Running List.
Notes
Particularly by the HKMLA and the WB/LAD.
In accordance with O 72.
