The AJTC was created by the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 to replace the Council on Tribunals (and the Scottish Committee of the Council on Tribunals) with a statutory role relating to the oversight of administrative justice system, tribunals and inquiries. It is to be abolished by the Public Bodies Bill 2010-11.
