Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they plan to publish annual totals from the information collected by Her Majesty’s Courts and Tribunal Service in the MC100 Statements of assets and other financial circumstances for (1) 2016, (2) 2017, (3) 2018, (4) 2019, and (5) 2020.
This question was answered on 23rd February 2022
There are no plans to publish information from the MC100 statement of assets and other financial circumstances form.
Fines are means-tested. The value of a fine must reflect the seriousness of the offence and, when setting a fine, the court must take into account the financial circumstances of the offender, insofar as these can be assessed.
