Last autumn I was a bit mardy about the template orders when it came to their attempt to warn litigants about the rules around confidentiality.

You draft fool

I should have got around to politely raising my concerns with the committee that were tasked with reviewing the templates, but I didn’t. Life was a bit challenging last autumn…

However, happily, they have identified the issue anyway, and redrafted the confidentiality wording so that it now accurately and fully tells people what they can’t do without accidentally stopping them doing things they can and should be allowed to continue doing. The wording is similar to the wording I suggested last year, but actually I think its better than mine.

So we’re all good. Thumbs up. Yay.

Here is a short post I’ve just popped up on Transparency Project setting out the changes and linking to the templates.

I believe there are suggestions the formatting issues may have been improved too, but I haven’t dared look at that issue, lest it spoil my good mood.
