Labour (Co-op) — Harlow

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 December 2025

Debate

Criminal Court Reform

Contribution

I thank the Lord Chancellor for his statement. Residents in my constituency of Harlow are rightly concerned about the court backlog. Waiting six years for justice is not justice. Can the Lord Chancellor confirm that these changes will bring down the court backlog, and can he reassure us that for the major crimes he spoke about, there will still be trial by jury?
