star this property answer text <p>Court data held on prosecutions summarises into specific offence categories. There is not a combined group of fireworks offences, but there are some individual detailed offences that relate specifically to fireworks for which data is available. For example, ‘Possessing fireworks etc. in, or when entering, a designated sports ground’ and ‘Throwing or firing any fireworks in or into a street’. Numbers of prosecutions and convictions for these offences are published here: <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/738814/HO-Code-Tool-2017.xlsx" target="_blank">https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/738814/HO-Code-Tool-2017.xlsx</a></p><p> </p><p>It is not possible to identify how many prosecutions involved firework-related attacks on emergency workers in the last five years within Ministry of Justice centrally held information. Detailed information on whether a firework-related attack on emergency workers was involved in the commission of an offence may be held on court record but to be able to identify these cases we would have to access individual court records which would be of disproportionate cost.</p>

Additionally, 250 fee-paid judges and 100 salaried judges are being recruited across tribunals more widely.</p><p> </p><p>Five of the newly-appointed fee paid judges, 29 medically qualified panel member and 14 disability qualified panel members have been deployed to sit at SSCS tribunal venues serving the St Helens, Wigan and Liverpool areas.</p><p> </p><p>In addition, we have recently launched a new digital service with the aim of enabling speedier processing of appeals and to provide a better service for all parties to the proceedings. This will increase capacity, helping to reduce waiting times for appellants. Information on the new digital service can be found at:</p><p>https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-online-service-launched-for-pip-appeals</p><p>We are also taking forward initiatives with potential to increase the capacity and performance of the tribunal: for instance, introducing case management “triage” sessions, with the aim of reducing the time taken for appeals to reach final determination. All these measures will increase the capacity of the tribunal, with the aim of reducing waiting times for appellants.</p>
