Lord Thomas also participated in the session 'How Are Courts Around the World Innovating?' which addressed the use of technology to enhance court users' experiences, including the ability to file claims fully online. The discussion also emphasised the importance of transparency, citing QICDRC's practices of live-streaming hearings and publishing judgments on its website as examples of strengthening public trust in the judiciary.

These include bilingual services, an electronic court platform, and the application of select English common law principles in line with international best practice.
