HM Courts & Tribunals Service holds information on magistrates’ courts which have opened and closed in each year since 2010, however, this needs to be cross referenced against Local Criminal Justice Board areas. HM Courts & Tribunals Service is unable to collate and check this information within a short period of time.

I will write to the honourable member in due course when the information is available.
