The review of the Guideline Hourly Rates commenced in 2020 was controversial from the outset. The CJC working group, chaired by Mr Justice Stewart, decided to gather data in two ways, by asking the judiciary for details of the hourly rates awarded for a three-month period at the end of 2019, and asking the legal profession for details of hourly rates awarded or agreed over an 18-month period between 1 April 2019 and 31 August 2020.
