Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, with reference to Sir Brian Leveson’s 2015 analysis of efficiency in criminal proceedings in England and Wales, if he will provide an update on the 56 recommendations in that report including which ones (a) are already implemented, (b) are in progress and (c) have been rejected.

The Government did not reject any of the recommendations and has implemented all those for which it has responsibility. A significant number were solely for the judiciary to implement. The recommended changes to Criminal Procedure Rules have all been completed.
