answer text <p>The Unduly Lenient Sentence scheme is a vital safeguard in our criminal justice system. It permits the Law Officers to intervene personally in a case where a sentencing judge has fallen into gross error and imposed a sentence which is outside the reasonable range.</p><p> </p><p>Sentencing judges get it right in the vast majority of cases. In those rare cases where they get it wrong, the scheme ensures that justice is served.</p><p> </p><p>I recently argued in person before the Court of Appeal that the dangerous and depraved serial rapists Joseph McCann and Reynhard Sinaga should have received whole life sentences. The Court of Appeal did not impose whole life sentences, but it did increase their minimum terms from 30 to 40 years to properly reflect the truly heinous nature of their offending and protect the public from them.</p> more like this

The Table below summarises that data, with the column labelled ‘Special Leave With Pay – Other reasons’ including those who have self-isolated. This column shows that 253 staff (approximately 3.8% of the workforce) fall within this category. However, in general, those who have self-isolated will predominantly have continued to work remotely and will not have needed to take time away from the workplace. <table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Grade</strong></p></td><td><p>Special Leave with pay-Caring responsibilities (number of staff)</p></td><td><p>Special Leave with pay-Other reasons (number of staff)</p></td><td><p>Special Leave with pay-respiratory (number of staff)</p></td><td><p><strong>Totals</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Headcount</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Percentage of grade</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>A1</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>9</p></td><td><p>13</p></td><td><p>69.23%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>A2</p></td><td><p>52</p></td><td><p>66</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>118</p></td><td><p>1130</p></td><td><p>10.44%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>B2</p></td><td><p>21</p></td><td><p>7</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>28</p></td><td><p>260</p></td><td><p>10.77%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>B3</p></td><td><p>18</p></td><td><p>8</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>26</p></td><td><p>207</p></td><td><p>12.56%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Crown Advocate</p></td><td><p>9</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>11</p></td><td><p>194</p></td><td><p>5.67%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Crown Prosecutor</p></td><td><p>10</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>12</p></td><td><p>240</p></td><td><p>5%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Level D</p></td><td><p>12</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>14</p></td><td><p>163</p></td><td><p>8.59%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Level E</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>63</p></td><td><p>1.59%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Legal Manager 1</p></td><td><p>12</p></td><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>19</p></td><td><p>290</p></td><td><p>6.55%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Legal Manager 2</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>100</p></td><td><p>3%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Paralegal Assistant</p></td><td><p>17</p></td><td><p>17</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>35</p></td><td><p>260</p></td><td><p>13.46%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Paralegal Business Manager</p></td><td><p>8</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>11</p></td><td><p>109</p></td><td><p>10.09%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Paralegal Officer</p></td><td><p>36</p></td><td><p>23</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>59</p></td><td><p>609</p></td><td><p>9.69%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Senior Crown Prosecutor</p></td><td><p>120</p></td><td><p>53</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>176</p></td><td><p>1726</p></td><td><p>10.2%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Specialist Prosecutor</p></td><td><p>21</p></td><td><p>14</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>36</p></td><td><p>211</p></td><td><p>17.06%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Senior Specialist Prosecutor</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>1</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>16</p></td><td><p>18.75%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Senior Legal Manager/SCS</p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>81</p></td><td><p>2.47%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>AP</p></td><td><p>9</p></td><td><p>4</p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p>13</p></td><td><p>141</p></td><td><p>9.22%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>B1/Legal Trainee/EO</p></td><td><p>47</p></td><td><p>39</p></td><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>89</p></td><td><p>735</p></td><td><p>12.11%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p><strong>402</strong> <strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong>253 </strong></p></td><td><p><strong>10</strong> <strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong>665</strong> <strong> </strong></p></td><td><p><strong>6594</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>10.08%</strong></p></td></tr></tbody></table></p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2"><p> </p></td></tr></tbody></table>

answer text <p>The Law Officers promote the unduly lenient sentence scheme and its extension, including in Parliament and on social media.</p><p>The AGO has also worked with the Ministry of Justice to take steps to raise awareness of the scheme as part of the revised statutory Code of Practice for Victims of Crime, which was published in November 2020 following consultation. The revised Code will come into force on 1 April, and now includes a requirement for the Witness Care Unit to inform victims of the unduly lenient sentence scheme promptly once sentencing has taken place. This will help to improve awareness of the scheme and also understanding of when cases may be eligible.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The latest HMCPSI report on the Victim Communication and Liaison (VCL) scheme was published on 22 October 2020. The report suggested the CPS should fundamentally review at national level how the VCL scheme is being delivered.</p><p>The CPS accepts the need for a radical review of their communications with victims, and the need to make quick progress. The CPS is therefore planning to undertake an evidence-based assessment of victims’ needs, including conducting user research to inform the review. The CPS are taking a phased approach to this work so that early, targeted improvements can be made at the same time as developing a longer-term programme of more impactful change.</p><p> </p> more like this
