The Pre-application Judicial Education Programme is a positive step forward to support lawyers from all backgrounds, including those from underrepresented groups as they aspire towards a judicial career. MOJ funding for the programme will amount to an estimate of £152,000 over three years (2018/19 to 2020/21). We anticipate that £31,500 of that will be incurred in 2019/20. The total cost of the programme will be approximately £300,000 including contributory costs from partners.
