Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how much has been spent by the HM Courts and Tribunals Service on the courts reform programme to date.
This question was answered on 25th March 2019
As of February 2019, HM Courts and Tribunals Service has spent £514m on the Reform Programme. Since 2015/16, approximately £122m has been raised from the sale of surplus court building, every penny of which has been reinvested into the justice system.
The government is investing £1bn to reform our courts and tribunals service, bringing new technology and modern ways of working to the justice system and benefiting all those that use it.
