We will be issuing new civil contract schedules beginning on 1 September 2023.
These will replace the current fifth year schedules for the 2018 Standard Civil Contract which are ending on 31 August 2023. All schedules will run for 12 months.
The 2018 Standard Civil Contract was extended by a further 12 months in March 2023.
Where to find new schedules
You will be able to view schedules in Contracted Work and Administration (CWA) from no later than 31 July 2022.
Reporting work
Work completed in September can be reported from 1 October 2023.
Matter start allocations
In most cases, matter starts will be allocated on the basis of the allocation bid for in the original tender.
Where you have self-granted an additional 50 per cent of matter starts, you will receive this increased allocation.
This includes an allocation of an additional 20 miscellaneous matter starts to advise victims of human trafficking/modern slavery on compensation claims where a provider bid for these in the original tender.
Providers will be able self-grant a further 50 per cent of matter starts in the fourth year of the contract.
