Courts: Reform
(asked on 27th April 2018) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what annual savings he estimates the courts reform programme will have made by 2021 when that programme is complete.
This question was answered on 10th May 2018
We are investing over £1bn to modernise the courts and tribunals service. This investment will make sure we are able to save over £230m per annum through efficiencies once the reforms are implemented in full, by introducing new technology and working practices. This includes £200m per annum for the Reform Programme, which is part of that portfolio of change. Steady state savings will not be realised until 2023/24.
