Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what account was taken of local transport links in Walsden, Portsmouth and Todmorden in the consultation on the Provision of Court and Tribunal Estate for both victims and those on trial.
The consultation proposals included information on approximate travel times for each regional consultation paper.
No decision has been taken to close any court. The consultation closed on 8 October and we are considering all responses carefully.
