Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 December 2025

Debate

Criminal Court Reform

Contribution

Let me list some of the root causes for criminal courts processing fewer cases: high workloads, staff shortages and inexperience, poor administration, crumbling buildings. How does the Justice Secretary think that undermining one of the basic tenets of English and Welsh law will be a solution to those problems?
