The Team of the ELI - European Network of Councils of the Judiciary (ENCJ) Joint Project on The Principled Relationship of Formal and Informal Justice through the Courts and Alternative Dispute Resolution met on 15 May in Vienna, at the premises of one of the ELI’s Institutional Observers, DLA Piper, to continue their work.

During the meeting, the results of the first consultation with the stakeholders were analysed. The Team also further developed two out of three planned outputs of the Project – namely Output 1 'A draft statement of European best practice in relation to the approach that courts and judges should adopt in interacting with all types of ADR processes' and Output 3 'Draft recommendations as to the best European models that can be developed and applied for coherent access to DRPs in respect of different types of dispute, and towards which Member States may wish to progress'.

The Team decided that the relevant stakeholders will be further consulted in this regard. More information about the consultation will be available in due course.

The Team also agreed that the next meeting will be held during the ELI Annual Conference on 7 September in Vienna.
