The Crown Prosecution Service keeps membership of all local and national external stakeholder groups, panels and forums under review to ensure that they contain relevant expertise and are representative of communities served.

Membership is subject to frequent change based on the nature of the forum or thematic subject being explored at any given meeting.

This material will not be placed in the Library of the House due to the level of resource that would be required to keep such dynamic information up-to-date.
