On 19 July 2013, the Senior President of Tribunals and the President of the Family Division and Head of Family Justice issued a protocol on communications between judges of the Family Court and Immigration and Asylum Chambers of the First-tier Tribunal and Upper Tribunal.

The aim of the protocol is to enable judges in each jurisdiction to communicate effectively in order to obtain information about proceedings in their respective jurisdictions that may affect the outcome of the proceedings before them and to make better informed decisions.

The protocol includes four annexes.
