Scottish legal reform

Scottish legal reform involves updating and improving laws and the legal system in Scotland to ensure justice, efficiency, and fairness. This process can include changing existing laws, introducing new legislation, and modifying court procedures to better reflect societal needs, human rights, and technological advances. Reforms are often driven by government initiatives, public consultations, or recommendations from legal bodies. The goal is to make the legal system more accessible, transparent, and capable of responding effectively to contemporary issues while respecting Scotland’s unique legal heritage within the UK framework.
