Amendments to CPR Part 24 and CPR PD 24—1 October 2023

Practitioners should note that the CPR provisions relevant to summary judgment were amended with effect from 1 October 2023. CPR Part 24 was substituted and CPR PD 24 was revoked. The changes were intended to simplify the rules, and do not materially alter the substantive law or practice. The numbering and location of some provisions is changed. Accordingly, authorities which pre-date the 1 October 2023 amendments may include reference to the previous provisions and numbering. References in this Checklist are to the wording of CPR Part 24 as currently in force.

For tables showing the destination of the old provisions and the derivation of the new provisions, see Practice Note: Summary judgment—CPR Part 24 and CPR PD 24 destination and derivation tables
