				In the light of these statistics for its performance over its first six months the Court’s
target remains for all appeals to be heard within 9 months of the grant of permission. The
Court, however, seeks to arrange hearings according to the availability of parties’ legal
representatives. In practice it is this factor alone which can prolong the ‘life’ of an appeal:
the Court can and has arranged hearings within weeks of the grant of permission in a
number of urgent cases (e.g. family cases).
