Interpreting and translation services in the courts

Inquiry

Many public services use interpreting and translation services (ITS) for users of public services who would otherwise struggle to interact with them. The aim of this short inquiry will be to focus on procuring interpreting and translation services in the courts, policy recommendations for supporting services providers, and the potential role of technology in enabling interpreting and translation services.

This inquiry is no longer accepting evidence

The deadline for submissions was Monday 30 September 2024.
