Following a scathing review from the Justice Secretary, it seems that the justice system is due for a much-needed overhaul.
Michael Grove is no stranger to controversy, just ask anyone in Education, and now under his new remit of Justice Secretary, Michael Grove seems once again ready to reform a system he believes is outdated.
To be fair he has a point, our courts are said to be offering the highest standard, this maybe true but only if you can pay for it; at the same time courts offer a third rate standard to victims of crime in the UK, with many victims facing prolonged ordeals because of the court system which is described as 'unforgivable'. Mr Grove highlights rape victims who are forced to wait years for any form of justice and are put through much unnecessary suffering.
Whist details are not available at the moment, it is expected that the focus will be on modernisation to cut down time scales for criminal cases.
Mr Grove, in his speech, draws a comparison to how the rich use our legal system compared to everyone else, which may be a cheap shot as it's not about changing the 'gold standard' of legal care, it's about improving the 3rd class legal care.
My belief is, if we are brilliant at something, fine, don't criticise it; let's just make sure we improve where we need to, as Mr Groves, 'gold standard' tends to be company litigation which is a world away from domestic violence.
We need to protect the vulnerable children and victims of crime throughout any legal ordeal they may be involved in, yes the courts need to be improved, but Mr Grove will come under pressure if painting a legal utopia whilst at the same time cutting Legal aid.
In parts the legal industry is still a dinosaur that needs pulling into the twenty first century, it needs to cut down on bureaucracy and embrace new technology, not as a best practice but as an enforced change.
You don't have to be the Justice Secretary to realise that waiting two years for a domestic abuse case to be heard is unacceptable, Judges have been calling for change for some time, but you do have to be the Justice Secretary to ensure change is correct and adequately funded.
Mr Grove, I am sure, will back the proposals published by Sir Leveson, we look forward to seeing the details, the time scales and the funding.
