The utilisation quoted is for all jurisdictions (work type) sharing the Magistrates' Court building, and not just for Magistrates' work. Availability is calculated as 2.5 hours per session per working day, and there are generally 2 sessions per working day, giving a notional 5-hour sitting day.<\/p>

Available Hours represents the hours notionally available, irrespective of whether subsequently utilised for crime, civil, family or tribunal hearings.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Utilisation Rate represents the total utilisation of the notional capacity of each venue, of which magistrates court hearings will therefore only be a subset. The availability figure ignores all short-term unavailability as a result, for example, of being out of use due to local/temporary building work, or use by other organisations. Utilisation is only recorded for hearings in HMCTS-controlled or owned Court/hearing rooms where parties were physically present.<\/p>

<\/p>

The utilisation rate is calculated as the total hours used divided by the number of notionally available hours. The data was produced from the HMCTS Performance Database on 8 July 2019.<\/p>

Although care is taken when processing and analysing the data, the details are subject to inaccuracies inherent in any large-scale case management system and is the best data that is available.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3926", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Paul Maynard"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Blackpool North and Cleveleys"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Paul Maynard"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-07-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-07-15T16:10:35.227Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "54"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-07-05", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Magistrates' Courts: Greater London"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the court utilisation rate was at (a) Camberwell Green and (b) Croydon Magistrates Court in each of the last two years.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1565", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Philip Davies"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Shipley"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Philip Davies"} ], "uin" : "273766"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 1, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
