Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what assessment he has made of the number of people turned away from legal aid providers since 2010.
No particular information is captured by the Legal Aid Agency to record those instances where individuals seeking legally aided advice and assistance did not receive it as a result of no application being made by a legal aid provider. Decisions as to whether or not an individual is eligible for legal help are delegated to the individual provider.
