BBC Radio Wales - All Things Considered, Faith in Justice

Azim Ahmed discusses the work of religious courts in Britain with a panel of guests.

Religious courts or councils have existed for decades or even centuries. Now that a Sikh council has been established, Azim Ahmed discusses the nature and function of these bodies.

Religious courts or councils have long existed in England and Wales, offering mediation or arbitration on a range of issues for the Jewish, Muslim and even Christian communities. With the recent establishment of the Sikh Council, Azim Ahmed discusses the nature of these institutions with a panel of guests. What are they, what do they do, and how effective are they?

Azim is joined by Dr Samia Bano, Reader in Law at SOAS, University of London; Rabbi Jonathan Romain, Convenor of the Reform Beit Din, and Professor Russell Sandberg.
