The law is made to be known by anyone, not by a few high priests.
It's time to: 1) get rid of the stare decisis madness; 2) get laws codified, accessible and clear; 3) train more judges, rather than machines.

The Stare Decisis method has its benefits. In fact Woolf when he ushered in the CPR was said to have encouraged limited reliance on the strict 'pleadings' - and that didn't work as he recommended that a letter be sufficient 'pleading' thus encouraging Pre Action Protocol.

The more interesting report to read at this time would be the Middleton Report on bringing judicial decision making / accessibility of the Law to the masses.

Never a good idea really.
