Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many young witnesses have provided evidence from a non-court live link site in each year for which data is available.
The department does not hold data on the number of young witnesses who give evidence via video link (either within a court building, or from non-court live link site). There are remote links in each court region, which provide victims and witnesses with the opportunity to give evidence away from the court room.
