answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/04/2024 answer text <p>We are very grateful to the Lay Observers for their invaluable work. We have thoroughly considered their annual report and its recommendations.</p><p>Timeliness is a key consideration when conveying children and young people to and from court and, in certain circumstances, transport in vehicles with adults may be the appropriate solution. In these cases, the children and young people would be collected and supervised by staff who normally work with adults. This is provided for in the contracts, and our focus is on ensuring that the service provided for in the contracts is delivered.</p><p>On all occasions when children and young people are transported with adults, the cellular accommodation in the vehicle must be separated by a screen to ensure that the children and young people are kept apart.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 22/04/2024 12:49:19 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar
