The Ministry of Justice published a notice on 18 September 2026 inviting expressions of interest for the LawtechUK Advisory Board and for a new network of LawtechUK Ambassadors, as the programme planned a third phase of delivery from November 2026 to March 2029. The department said it was refreshing the programme's advisory arrangements. Applications were to be submitted by 5.00pm on Monday 5 October 2026, according to the notice.

Board members were to provide strategic oversight and independent advice to MOJ officials and, where appropriate, the successful grant recipient. Ambassadors were to promote the programme through professional networks, support stakeholder engagement and contribute to events, without a formal governance or advisory role. Both roles were described as voluntary, unremunerated and held in a personal capacity, with appointments planned for the programme's duration. MOJ said it could end an appointment early.

The notice said the timetable, including interviews in mid-October 2026 and outcomes from the week commencing 26 October 2026, was indicative and could change. Appointments were to be announced in the week commencing 2 November 2026.
