Abstract

The Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission (SCCRC) was established in 1999 as an independent state funded body with the remit to review possible miscarriages of justice.¹ It remains one of only a very few such bodies worldwide – aside from the Scottish Commission, there is a Criminal Cases Review Commission for England, Wales and Northern Ireland² and similar commissions exist in Norway³ and North Carolina.⁴ At the time of writing, a Bill is progressing through Parliament in New Zealand that, if successful, would establish a Commission there.⁵
