What can we help you with today?
The Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service is an independent, judicially-led, public body, with the composition of the Board set in statute (dictated by law made by the UK Parliament).
Chaired by the Lord President, Scotland’s most senior judge, its membership is drawn from those holding judicial office, members with a legal background and independent members from outside the justice system.
The Board sets the strategic direction of SCTS, makes the key decisions and monitors progress to ensure the delivery of strategic objectives. The Board is supported by four committees
covering audit and risk; people; remuneration; and estates, health and safety, fire and security.
Each of the committees oversees major activities relevant to its area, providing specialist direction and guidance to ensure effective change management at a strategic level.
