house id	2
legislature	25277 pref label House of Lords
question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Keen of Elie on 24 February (HL1472), why they have no current plans to review Part Three of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012.
tabling member printed	Lord Goodlad
uin	HL1932
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/03/2020 answer text <p>Part 3 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (“LASPO”) makes a series of amendments to the existing sentencing and release framework, very few of which are standalone provisions. Furthermore, some of the LASPO provisions have subsequently been amended, or even repealed. It would therefore be difficult to isolate the impact of the amendments brought in by LASPO from the impact of other provisions, or to identify a causal link between the specific LASPO changes and wider factors in crime and sentencing.</p> answering member printed Lord Keen of Elie question first answered 11/03/2020 11:47:01 answering member 4538 label Biography information for Lord Keen of Elie

hansard heading	Statutory Instruments
house id	2
legislature	25277 pref label House of Lords
question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many statutory instruments from the Ministry of Justice have been laid this calendar year; of those, what percentage corrected errors in a previous instrument (including drafts of affirmative instruments that had to be superseded by correcting drafts); and what steps that Department is taking to reduce the need for correcting instruments.
tabling member printed	Lord Goodlad
uin	HL1427
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/08/2014 answer text <p>The Ministry of Justice laid 80 statutory instruments between the start of the calendar year and 25 July 2014. The Ministry of Justice does not keep records of which statutory instruments corrected errors in previous instruments. However, it estimates that 3 instruments (less than 4% of the total) were expressed to be correcting errors made in, in consequence of a defect in, or in substitution of, a previous instrument and were as a result issued free of charge to known recipients of the original instrument.</p><p> </p><p>The Ministry of Justice is strongly committed to improving the quality of statutory instrument drafting. In addition to providing training to relevant staff and adopting rigorous checking process (including a requirement that all instruments are subject to a second and third pair of eyes check by a lawyer who has not drafted the instrument), a new post of Statutory Instrument Co-ordinator has been established within the Legal Directorate to co-ordinate the sharing of best practice. The Ministry of Justice will also be participating in work being led by the Treasury Solicitor and First Parliamentary Counsel to enhance further the quality, consistency and effectiveness of statutory instruments across Government.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Faulks question first answered 11/08/2014 10:51:24 answering member 4183 label Biography information for Lord Faulks
