Description

His Majesty's Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS) is seeking a supplier to publish a series of legal publications - reports on judgments made with regards to Immigration Appeals - produced within HMCTS, in both physical and digital formats. Each issue usually contains 12 judgments from a variety of different courts including the United Kingdom Supreme Court, the Court of Appeal, the Administrative Court, the Scottish Court of Session, the Upper Tribunal Immigration and Asylum Chamber (UTIAC), the Court of Justice of the European Union and the European Court of Human Rights. Each physical publication is a paperback book of approximately 300 pages in length. The Editorial Board selects judgments for inclusion which are of importance to immigration, asylum and human rights jurisprudence. Each judgment is preceded by a headnote which summarises the judgment and provides a list of cases, legislation and international instruments referred to in the judgment. The headnotes are written by the Contributing Editors in the Legal Research Unit (LRU) and are approved by the Editorial Board. Each issue also contains a chronological table of cases, an alphabetical table of cases and a cumulative subject index. The sixth issue contains a cumulative alphabetical table of cases. The LRU prepares the tables and index. The Reports offer a compendium of significant domestic and European decisions in the jurisdiction in law reporter format. Decisions included in the Reports acquire a unique neutral citation number (NCN) recognised and used by all other law reporters and legal research databases. The Reports occupy a particularly important place in asylum and human rights law. Unlike courts in other countries which look to domestic transposing legislation, the UK courts look directly to the relevant international treaties. Therefore, UK jurisprudence has a universal value, which the Reports showcase. The Reports are currently only available in hard copy, and there are an average of 400 copies of each of the six issues required per year. This ITT requests submissions which will retain the hard copy publication, whilst also providing online access to the reports. It is also expected that the supplier will provide copy-editing and proofreading services.
