answer text <p>The Ministry of Justice makes use of management consultants to advise on resolutions to some of its complex and challenging problems. To ensure value for money is secured from the engagement of management consultants, the Ministry’s commercial policy is to put new requirements out to competition.</p><p>The Ministry of Justice total spend on external management consultants in the periods 2017/18 and 2018/19 is set out in Table 1 below.</p><p>The most significant area of spend outlined below is the HMCTS Reform Programme. This programme is investing £1.3bn to carry out much needed digital reforms of court services to address previously antiquated paper processes and IT systems, and ensure that our world-renowned legal system remains viable. The reforms are designing new digital services around users and allowing people to access them online, improving access to justice, and making the system more efficient.</p><p>The information requested for 2014, 2015 and 2016 could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.</p><p><strong>Table </strong><strong>1</strong></p><p><strong>Consultancy Spend by Financial Year &amp; Business Area, £000s</strong></p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p><strong>2017/18</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2018/19</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>MoJ HQ</p></td><td><p>10,451</p></td><td><p>3342</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Her Majesty's Prison &amp; Probation Service</p></td><td><p>4538</p></td><td><p>2671</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Her Majesty's Courts &amp; Tribunals Service</p></td><td><p>10,730</p></td><td><p>22,182</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Total MoJ</strong></p></td><td><p>25,719</p></td><td><p>28,195</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>The 10 work areas with the greatest expenditure on external management consultancy for each of those financial years are as set out in Table 2 below:</p><p><strong>Table 2</strong></p><p><strong>Consultancy Spend by Financial Year &amp; Projects/Work Areas, £000s</strong></p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p><strong>2017/18</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>1</strong></p></td><td><p>HMCTS - Reform Programme</p></td><td><p>10,314</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2</strong></p></td><td><p>HMPPS - Electronic Monitoring</p></td><td><p>2,409</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>3</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ - Finance Group</p></td><td><p>2,102</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>4</strong></p></td><td><p>HMPPS - Prison Reform</p></td><td><p>1,632</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>5</strong></p></td><td><p>HMPPS - Community Rehabilitation</p></td><td><p>1,579</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>6</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ Property</p></td><td><p>1,412</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>7</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ Facilities Management</p></td><td><p>975</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>8</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ Digitech</p></td><td><p>890</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>9</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ People Group</p></td><td><p>794</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>10</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ Transformation Programme</p></td><td><p>381</p></td></tr></tbody></table><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p> </p></td><td><p><strong>2018/19</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>1</strong></p></td><td><p>HMCTS - Reform Programme</p></td><td><p>21,870</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2</strong></p></td><td><p>HMPPS - Probation Programme</p></td><td><p>1,360</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>3</strong></p></td><td><p>HMPPS - Prison Estates Programme</p></td><td><p>822</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>4</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ Property</p></td><td><p>592</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>5</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ Procurement</p></td><td><p>514</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>6</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ Facilities Management</p></td><td><p>458</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>7</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ Digitech</p></td><td><p>417</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>8</strong></p></td><td><p>HMPPS - Community Rehabilitation</p></td><td><p>415</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>9</strong></p></td><td><p>MoJ People Group</p></td><td><p>355</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>10</strong></p></td><td><p>HMCTS - Common Platform</p></td><td><p>237</p></td></tr></tbody></table>

answer text <p>The Government is committed to supporting the recovery of the courts. We recognise that the impact of the pandemic in courts has been uneven across the country, with the North West being one of the areas experiencing a greater increase in caseload.</p><p>At the end of December 2021, the outstanding caseload in the Greater Manchester Local Criminal Justice Board was 3,016 and at Bolton Crown Court, it was 478. There were 58,818 outstanding cases nationally. There will always be outstanding cases as these figures include cases that are being prepared to be heard in the courts.</p><p>In order to tackle the backlog in cases, we have extended 30 Nightingale courtrooms beyond the end of March 2022. The closest Nightingale court is at Leeds Combined Court, which offers 3 additional criminal courtrooms. We have also opened two new ‘super courtrooms’ in Manchester and Loughborough, allowing up to an extra 250 cases a year to be heard across England and Wales.</p><p>We are also working with the judiciary to explore moving cases across regional boundaries to areas with spare capacity, where appropriate, and using a national, flexible pool of judges for some regions, including the North West, to draw from as required.</p><p>I also engage regularly with other key stakeholders in the North West, focusing on how we can deliver further progress in addressing the outstanding caseload and similar challenges. For example, I recently met with Andrew Pratt, the Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire, and chair of the Local Criminal Justice Board, and we discussed how the Government’s increased funding for Independent Sexual Violence Advisors and Independent Domestic Violence Advisors was enabling the local CJS to deliver better support for victims of domestic abuse and sexual violence.</p><p>We have once again removed the limit on sitting days in the Crown Court for this financial year to allow courts to work at full capacity, delivering swifter justice for victims and reducing the backlog of cases. To secure enough capacity to sit at the required levels in 2022/23 and beyond we are expanding our plans for judicial recruitment.</p><p>These measures are already working, and as a result we expect to get through 20% more Crown Court cases this financial year than we did pre-Covid. Following an increase in funding as part of the Ministry of Justice’s Spending Review settlement, we aim to reduce the number of outstanding cases in the Crown Court to 53,000 by March 2025.</p>

answer text <p>HM Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) is committed to increasing awareness of the hidden harms of problem gambling and training our prison and probation officers. This equips them with the skills and confidence to help identify, support and signpost individuals into the most appropriate interventions both in custody and on release.</p><p>The activities and training services available to improve staff awareness regarding gambling related harms are detailed below.</p><p>Within the Probation Service, practitioners have access to an evidence based effective practice resource which was published in 2021. This provides a summary of key evidence, including the harms caused by gambling, signs that gambling is causing a problem, ideas on how to work with individuals who gamble and reflective questions to support practice discussions.</p><p>To increase awareness, the launch of this guidance was supported by an online event in November 2021 to understand more about the prevalence and effects of gambling in criminal justice and look at how prison and probation services can respond. The recording of the event remains available for staff to access. The event involved speakers from the Prisoner Education tTrust, the Howard League for Penal Reform, Epic Restart Foundation and Gam Care along with colleagues from within HMPPS.</p><p>Further work is currently underway to create a package of materials for probation staff to use with this specific cohort. This is expected to be available from October 2022. I refer the noble Lord to the answer given to HL1110 for further information.</p><p>HMPPS has an online learning platform which hosts a variety of training that all prison and probation staff can access. On this platform there is a package called ‘Problem Gambling: Prevalence and Practice’ where the aim is for the learner to gain an understanding about the occurrence and effects of gambling in the criminal justice system.</p><p>The police also offer a six-hour training course &quot;on understanding and spotting early signs of gambling addictions&quot;, which was launched in September 2021 and is available to all police officers.</p>

answer text <p>Independent working projects (formerly known as Project in a Box) were introduced as a temporary delivery method in response to COVID-19 restrictions, enabling some eligible offenders to complete some of their Unpaid Work hours from home and facilitating the Probation Service’s recovery from the impact of the pandemic. Independent working projects were not in use prior to April 2020.</p><p>Independent working projects are currently only being deployed in a limited and targeted way to support our recovery from COVID-19. We will be conducting a review of independent working projects in the summer with a view to phase out their use completely by September.</p><p>Regarding community sentences more broadly, we are making community sentences a more robust and demanding disposal through investment and reform. Our newly relaunched Integrated Offender Management Strategy means probation are working with the police to increase supervision and oversight of the most persistent and problematic neighbourhood crime offenders.

answer text <p>We know that victim support services are crucial for victims to be able to rebuild and recover from the impact of crime. We are increasing funding for victim and witness support services to £192 million by 2024/25, compared to £41m in 2009/10. This includes an additional £6.6m per annum boost, announced last week, for services to support victims of sexual violence and domestic abuse. We have committed £154 million of this budget per annum on a multi-year basis, for the next three years (2022/23 to 2024/25 inclusive).</p><p>We recently published a draft Victims Bill along with a wider package of measures that will amplify victims’ voices in the criminal justice process, improve the support victims receive, and strengthen oversight of criminal justice agencies.</p><p>Measures that will go further to help support victims of crime in Wales and Newport West include:</p><ul><li>Enshrining the Victims’ Code in law, to send a clear signal about what victims can and should expect from the criminal justice system.</li><li>Placing a duty on criminal justice agencies to review their compliance with the Code and take account of victim feedback, with a role for PCCs to convene local compliance monitoring, to ensure the criminal justice system is held accountable for delivering the Victims’ Code.</li><li>Requiring inspectorates to undertake regular joint inspections on victims’ issues, to provide greater oversight and transparency over how victims are treated.</li></ul>
