Labour — Birmingham Ladywood

Speaking in the House of Commons on 5 March 2025

Debate

Courts and Tribunals: Sitting Days

Contribution

I would be happy to write to the hon. Member with the specific figures for Kent. However, he will know that the criminal justice system as a whole is under tremendous pressure and extreme stress because of the backlog and the prisons capacity crisis, all of which is the legacy of the previous Government that we are now fixing.
