answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/11/2014 answer text <p /> <p>When it came to power this Government made a priority of controlling legal costs which had become unsustainably high. We made changes to the law on how ‘no win, no fee’ conditional fee agreements (CFAs) operate, following recommendations by Lord Justice Jackson. The CFA reforms in Part 2 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders (LASPO) Act 2012 were delayed for insolvency cases until April 2015, to allow parties sufficient time to prepare for and adapt to the changes.</p><p> </p><p>In April 2011 the Government published an Impact Assessment in relation to the reforms set out in Part 2 of the LASPO Act. It explained that there may be a reduction in the number of cases brought where no win no fee CFAs are used, but overall the LASPO reforms should make costs more proportionate.</p> answering member constituency North West Cambridgeshire answering member printed Mr Shailesh Vara question first answered 27/11/2014 17:34:29 answering member 1496 label Biography information for Shailesh Vara

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/11/2014 answer text <p /> <p>I refer to my reply of 24 November. The aim of the joint protocol between NOMS, the police and the CPS is to strengthen, rather than replace, existing policy and requirements on the reporting of crime committed in prison. It is not anticipated that a large number of additional crimes will be processed through the court as a result of the protocol. Rather, the protocol will be used to prioritise referrals of crime to the police to ensure that the Criminal Justice System can target those crimes causing most problems in prison, those committed by persistent or violent criminals or those who are part of organised crime groups.</p><p> </p><p>As stated previously, the potential costs arising from the increased number of serious crimes that will now be dealt with by way of the Criminal Justice System rather than the prison disciplinary system will depend on a number of factors and it is the expectation that any additional costs will be covered through prioritising within existing Police and Departmental budgets for handling crime.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous grouped question UIN 215785 question first answered 27/11/2014 17:34:13 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous
